[tz] [PATCH 2/3] Replace some zones with links when that doesn't lose non-LMT info.

* northamerica (America/Anguilla, America/Dominica, America/Grenada)
(America/Guadeloupe, America/Montserrat, America/St_Kitts)
(America/St_Lucia, America/St_Vincent, America/Tortola)
(America/St_Thomas):
Link to America/Port_of_Spain instead of having a separate zone
that differs only in LMT. Each LMT entry is just a placeholder for
unavailable info, and by itself does not justify a separate zone.
Using just one zone simplifies maintenance, makes the runtime
a bit smaller, and can help simplify user selection of zones.
* southamerica (America/Aruba): Likewise, for America/Curacao.
* backward (America/Virgin):
* northamerica (America/St_Barthelemy, America/Marigot):
Adjust to the other changes, by not linking to a link.
