[tz] Ubuntu drops old-style links

[Matt Johnson-Pint]

I just learned that Ubuntu Noble (24.04) decided to intentionally split the
tzdata package.  Old-style links such as US/Eastern are no longer included
by default, but are available in the tzdata-legacy package instead.

Just thought I'd share.  I wonder if other distributions / platforms /
libraries will follow suit.  What do y'all think?
