libdatetime-timezone-perl: timezone updates in stable



Hi,

from <https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/724044>:
> Binary package hint: libdatetime-timezone-perl
>
> This package provides TimeZone information to Perl programs using the
> DateTime module.  So this module should be updated with the same
> policy as the 'tzdata' package, which means being volatile. See
> http://www.debian.org/volatile/
>
> See this message on the DateTime mailing list as a reference:
> http://marc.info/?l=perl-datetime&m=129848974132157&w=2

Judging from libdatetime-timezone-perl's debian/README.NMU it looks
possible to just refresh the timezone database without changing the rest
of the package.

Should we try to keep this at least not behind tzdata in stable?
