How do you want v2+ TZstring-based transitions to be implemented?
We can generate transitions based on the TZstring up to a given date in the
future. The advantage is that there is no need to change the code that uses
chop to find a transition. But it will waste memory
The other approach is adding a wrapper function around chop() calls to check
is when is after the last transition, and on in this case give the answer
based on the TZstring. But if we do that, the date returned by
timeZoneDetailForDate() will be of little sense to a consumer unaware of v2+
TZfile.
