  Changes to code

    zic no longer mishandles a last transition to a new time type.

    zic no longer overflows a buffer when generating a TZ string like
    "PST-167:59:58PDT-167:59:59,M11.5.6/-167:59:59,M12.5.6/-167:59:59",
    which can occur with adversarial input.  (Thanks to Naveed Khan.)

    zic no longer generates a longer TZif file than necessary when
    an earlier time zone abbreviation is a suffix of a later one.
    As a nice side effect, zic no longer overflows a buffer when given
    a long series of abbreviations, each a suffix of the next.
    (Buffer overflow reported by Arthur Chan.)

    zic no longer overflows an int when processing input like `Zone
    Ouch 2147483648:00:00 - LMT'.  The int overflow can lead to
    buffer overflow in adversarial cases.  (Thanks to Naveed Khan.)

    zic now checks for signals more often.
