Simplify handling of the timezone GUC by making initdb choose the default.
We were doing some amazingly complicated things in order to avoid running the very expensive identify_system_timezone() procedure during GUC initialization. But there is an obvious fix for that, which is to do it once during initdb and have initdb install the system-specific default into postgresql.conf, as it already does for most other GUC variables that need system-environment-dependent defaults. This means that the timezone (and log_timezone) settings no longer have any magic behavior in the server. Per discussion.
