Ensures that http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36374 stays fixed for the next 100 years! ;)

Even though we have fixed the current issue with Israel Standard Time already, there
will be a new problem coming up in year 2017.

Reason is that Israel Standard Time begins "on the Friday before the last Sunday of
March", which makes it impossible to use the Wine compressed timezone format.

The best solution to solve this is probably to use the same approach as on Windows:
Just add all the exceptions as DynamicDST entries. The following short Python
script was used to generate all the entries: http://ix.io/dE2
