Issue seen on somewhat irregular linux system configuration where
/etc/localtime is a symbolic link to a directory outside of
/usr/share/zoneinfo.
In past, when a symbolic link was seen, the end target file was
assumed to be under /usr/share/zoneinfo and a string comparison match
was attempted. We need to factor in the case where symbolic link
points to any other location and match the end target file with a TZ
file from
/usr/share/zoneinfo via findZoneinfoFile function.

cc'ing i18n-dev as that is where the TZ code is maintained.
The changes look okay but I think it would be more efficient to fstat
the zone info file after opening it.
