The description necessarily has fake transitions at start and end of
the year, potentially outside the year. These transitions should not
be reported by QTzTimeZonePrivate as transitions, although its data()
must find a "transition" whose data it can use (as in the permanent
standard time case, which could potentially be represented the same
way, although there's a saner way to do so, that the code already
handles) to report the zone's properties.
In the process, fix (and make more straightforward) the convoluted
decision-making code that was deciding which transitions to include in
the returned list. It was assuming invalidMSecs() would be set as the
atMSecsSinceEpoch of a transition, although this is computed in a way
that makes that value most unlikely, even when the result is invalid.
It also rather confusingly mixed < 0 tests as tests for overflow with
the one < 0 test that's about ignoring DST before 1970. Also added
comments to clarify some of what's going on there.
Expanded a recently-added test of a permanent DST zone to verify this
now works correctly.
