tzinfo is not kw-only in the other constructors and I don't think it should be 
here.  Unlike "fold", tzinfo value is usually recognizable at the call site.  
It is either called something like "tzinfo", "tz" or "New_York" or is a call 
such as 'tz.get('US/Eastern').

I would always prefer datetime.combine(d, t, tzinfo) to  datetime.combine(d, t, 
tzinfo=tzinfo).  datetime.combine(d, t, New_York) vs. datetime.combine(d, t, 
tzinfo=New_York) is a closer call, but still the first form is readable enough.
