Change behavior of skipped and repeated wall times within time zones
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: CORE-6058
URL: http://tracker.firebirdsql.org/browse/CORE-6058
Project: Firebird Core
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Engine
Affects Versions: 4.0 Beta 1
Reporter: Adriano dos Santos Fernandes
Within time zones, some wall times does not exist (DST starting) or repeats
twice (DST ending).
We should handle that situations using some standard, which a good one could be
the ECMAScript standard (JavaScript).

"1:30 AM on November 5, 2017 in America/New_York is repeated twice (fall
backward), but it must be interpreted as 1:30 AM UTC-04 instead of 1:30 AM
UTC-05"
"2:30 AM on March 12, 2017 in America/New_York does not exist, but it must be
interpreted as 2:30 AM UTC-05 (equivalent to 3:30 AM UTC-04)"
