For zones that observe DST, pg_timezone_names only shows you the active
abbreviation, but pg_timezone_abbrevs includes both summer and winter
abbreviations.  Also, there are some zones that have alternate
abbreviations that will never show up in pg_timezone_names
(ZULU and Z for UTC, for instance).
