[tz] signed overflow

In time2sub() there is this code:
} else {
lo = 1;
for (i = 0; i < (int) TYPE_BIT(time_t) - 1; ++i)
lo *= 2;
hi = -(lo + 1);
}
The last *= 2 will overflow a signed integer time_t. This can be fixed with “lo = -1” instead of “lo = 1”.
This change seems to be consistent with the variable names.
