Changes affecting future time stamps
Egypt will not observe DST in 2015 and will consider canceling it
permanently. For now, assume no DST indefinitely.
(Thanks to Ahmed Nazmy and Tim Parenti.)
Changes affecting past time stamps
America/Whitehorse switched from UTC-9 to UTC-8 on 1967-05-28, not
1966-07-01. Also, Yukon's time zone history is documented better.
(Thanks to Brian Inglis and Dennis Ferguson.)
Change affecting past and future time zone abbreviations
The abbreviations for Hawaii-Aleutian standard and daylight times
have been changed from HAST/HADT to HST/HDT, as per US Government
Printing Office style. This affects only America/Adak since 1983,
as America/Honolulu was already using the new style.

Adds a new _internal_ function. Provide a global serial number to
support more efficient private caching algorithms. This allows
to skip re-running the __system_property_find() call on misses until
there is a global change in the properties. This call is a read
barrier, the property data to be read following this call will be
read sequentially and up to date.

Changes affecting future time stamps
Egypt's spring-forward transition is at 24:00 on April's last Thursday,
not 00:00 on April's last Friday. 2015's transition will therefore be on
Thursday, April 30 at 24:00, not Friday, April 24 at 00:00. Similar fixes
apply to 2026, 2037, 2043, etc. (Thanks to Steffen Thorsen.)
Changes affecting past time stamps
The following changes affect some pre-1991 Chile-related time stamps
in America/Santiago, Antarctica/Palmer, and Pacific/Easter.
The 1910 transition was January 10, not January 1.
The 1918 transition was September 10, not September 1.
The UTC-4 time observed from 1932 to 1942 is now considered to be
standard time, not year-round DST.
Santiago observed DST (UTC-3) from 1946-07-15 through 1946-08-31,
then reverted to standard time, then switched its time zone to
UTC-5 on 1947-04-01.
Assume transitions before 1968 were at 00:00, since we have no data
saying otherwise.
The spring 1988 transition was 1988-10-09, not 1988-10-02.
The fall 1990 transition was 1990-03-11, not 1990-03-18.
Assume no UTC offset change for Pacific/Easter on 1890-01-01,
and omit all transitions on Pacific/Easter from 1942 through 1946
since we have no data suggesting that they existed.
One more zone has been turned into a link, as it differed
from an existing zone only for older time stamps. As usual,
this change affects UTC offsets in pre-1970 time stamps only.
The zone's old contents have been moved to the 'backzone' file.
The affected zone is America/Montreal.

Spencer Low points out that we never actually set a name because the constant
part of the string was longer than the kernel's maximum, and the kernel
rejects long names rather than truncate.
Shorten the fixed part of the string while still keeping it meaningful. 9999
POSIX timers should be enough for any process...

The visibility control in pthread_atfork.h is incorrect.
It breaks 64bit libc.so by hiding pthread_atfork.
This reverts commit 6df122f852.

This doesn't affect code like Chrome that correctly ignores EINTR on
close, makes code that tries TEMP_FAILURE_RETRY work (where before it might
have closed a different fd and appeared to succeed, or had a bogus EBADF),
and makes "goto fail" code work (instead of mistakenly assuming that EINTR
means that the close failed).
Who loses? Anyone actively trying to detect that they caught a signal while
in close(2). I don't think those people exist, and I think they have better
alternatives available.

Prebuilt shared libraries (libclang.so, libLLVM.so and etc) have been
moved to prebuilts/sdk/tools/linux/lib64. Update the search path in
cpp.py to match the change.

1. Don't prevent calling callback when SIGEV_THREAD timers are disarmed by timer_settime.
As in POSIX standard: The effect of disarming or resetting a timer with pending
expiration notifications is unspecified. And glibc didn't prevent in this situation, so I
think it is fine to remove the support.
2. Still prevent calling callback when SIGEV_THREAD timers are deleted by timer_delete.
As in POSIX standard: The disposition of pending signals for the deleted timer is unspecified.
However, glibc handles this (although that is not perfect). And some of our tests in
time_test.cpp depend on this feature as described in b/18039727. so I retain the support.
3. Fix some flaky test in time_test.cpp, and make "time*" test pass on bionic-unit-tests-glibcxx.
