Historically, the MD5 checksums in our LFS files serve as a protection
against broken downloads, or accidentally corrupted source files.
While the sources are nowadays downloaded via HTTPS, it make sense to
beef up integrity protection for them, since transparently intercepting
TLS is believed to be feasible for more powerful actors, and the state
of the public PKI ecosystem is clearly not helping.
Therefore, this patch switches from MD5 to BLAKE2, updating all LFS
files as well as make.sh to deal with this checksum algorithm. BLAKE2 is
notably faster (and more secure) than SHA2, so the performance penalty
introduced by this patch is negligible, if noticeable at all.
In preparation of this patch, the toolchain files currently used have
been supplied with BLAKE2 checksums as well on
https://source.ipfire.org/.

The pacificnew file has been dropped by IANA. Adding the "factory" file
makes sense to have a reasonable default in case the time zone is
unknown, which, however, should not happen in case of IPFire 2.x - just
trying to be consistent here.

Most of these files still used old dates and/or domain names for contact
mail addresses. This is now replaced by an up-to-date copyright line.
Just some housekeeping... :-)

The 2016d release of the tz code and data is available. It reflects the
following changes, which were either circulated on the tz mailing list
or are relatively minor technical or administrative changes:
Changes affecting future time stamps
America/Caracas switches from -0430 to -04 on 2016-05-01 at 02:30.
(Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev for the heads-up.)
Asia/Magadan switches from +10 to +11 on 2016-04-24 at 02:00.
(Thanks to Alexander Krivenyshev and Matt Johnson.)
New zone Asia/Tomsk, split off from Asia/Novosibirsk. It covers
Tomsk Oblast, Russia, which switches from +06 to +07 on 2016-05-29
at 02:00. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.)
Changes affecting past time stamps
New zone Europe/Kirov, split off from Europe/Volgograd. It covers
Kirov Oblast, Russia, which switched from +04/+05 to +03/+04 on
1989-03-26 at 02:00, roughly a year after Europe/Volgograd made
the same change. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.)
Russia and nearby locations had daylight-saving transitions on
1992-03-29 at 02:00 and 1992-09-27 at 03:00, instead of on
1992-03-28 at 23:00 and 1992-09-26 at 23:00. (Thanks to Stepan
Golosunov.)
Many corrections to historical time in Kazakhstan from 1991
through 2005. (Thanks to Stepan Golosunov.) Replace Kazakhstan's
invented time zone abbreviations with numeric abbreviations.

Adds timezone data to ARM architecture. The new glibc does not
install it on its own.
Maybe we want to use this for i586 as well, because the data
is way more recent.
