According to RFC2445, TZNAME only exists inside
of a BEGIN:STANDARD or DAYLIGHT ... END:STANDARD or DAYLIGHT.

We could modify VTIMEZONE to say that TZNAME could also
included at the BEGIN:VTIMEZONE ... END:VTIMEZONE scope.

Also, TZNAME is the equivalent of the ( Olson-FORMAT + Olson-Letter/s ).
(vs Olson-Name == TZID), so we would be overloading the name.

But there can be multiple TZNAME's per RFC2445-standardc and
RFC2445-daylightc. And TZNAME's format is unregulated - so that
might be a good suggestion.
