allow zoneinfo-path-relative filenames with no slashes in TZ variable

allow zoneinfo-path-relative filenames with no slashes in TZ variable

since the form TZ=name is reserved for POSIX-form time zone strings,
TZ=:name needs to be used when the zoneinfo filename is in the
top-level zoneinfo directory and therefore does not contain a slash.
previously the leading colon was merely dropped, making it impossible
to access such zones without a full absolute pathname.

changes based on patch by Timo Teräs.
