Avoid unnecessary tzset() call

Browse source 
Akatsuki reported ENV['TZ'] = 'UTC' improved 7x-8x faster on following code.
t = Time.now; 100000.times { Time.new(2019) }; Time.now - t
https://hackerslab.aktsk.jp/2019/12/01/141551

commit 4bc1669127(reduce tzset) dramatically improved this situation. But still,
TZ=UTC is faster than default.

This patch removs unnecessary tzset() call completely.

Performance check
  ----------------------
test program: t = Time.now; 100000.times { Time.new(2019) }; Time.now - t
before:         0.387sec
before(w/ TZ):  0.197sec
after:          0.162sec
after(w/ TZ):   0.165sec

OK. Now, Time creation 2x faster *and* TZ=UTC doesn't improve anything.
We can forget this hack completely. :)

Side note:
This patch slightly changes Time.new(t) behavior implicitly. Before this patch, it might changes
default timezone implicitly. But after this patch, it doesn't. You need to reset TZ
(I mean ENV['TZ'] = nil) explicitly.
But I don't think this is big impact. Don't try to change /etc/localtime on runtime.

Side note2: following test might be useful for testing "ENV['TZ'] = nil".
  -----------------------------------------
% cat <<'End' | sudo sh -s
rm -f /etc/localtime-; cp -a /etc/localtime /etc/localtime-
rm /etc/localtime; ln -s /usr/share/zoneinfo/Asia/Tokyo /etc/localtime
./ruby -e '
p Time.new(2000).zone # JST
File.unlink("/etc/localtime"); File.symlink("/usr/share/zoneinfo/America/Los_Angeles", "/etc/localtime")
p Time.new(2000).zone # JST (ruby does not follow /etc/localtime modification automatically)
ENV["TZ"] = nil
p Time.new(2000).zone # PST (ruby detect /etc/localtime modification)
'
rm /etc/localtime; cp -a /etc/localtime- /etc/localtime; rm /etc/localtime-
End
