Package time zone tables for Windows users

Details

    Description

      The documentation says that Windows users should download time zone tables from MySQL's site:

      https://mariadb.com/kb/en/library/time-zones/#mysql-time-zone-tables

      Is it still acceptable to direct Windows users to MySQL's site like this, or should we package up the time zone tables ourselves now?

            Windows 10 includes ICU, which has timezone information from the same tz database as the Unix directories. Timezone info is exported via APIs, rather than bunch of files. I'm investigating how this can be used for tzinfo_to_sql
