python: zoneinfo is pretty much broken

zoneinfo.available_timezones()[¶](https://docs.python.org/3/library/zoneinfo.html#zoneinfo.available_timezones) return an empty and any access results something like

  File "/lib/python312.zip/zoneinfo/_common.py", line 24, in load_tzdata
    raise ZoneInfoNotFoundError(f"No time zone found with key {key}")
zoneinfo._common.ZoneInfoNotFoundError: 'No time zone found with key UTC'

Yes, system timezone data is not available and the tzdata package is not around.

By default, zoneinfo uses the system’s time zone data if available; if no system time zone data is available, the library will fall back to using the first-party tzdata package available on PyPI.

We should probably vendor tzdata so that it will work as expected @dom96 @garrettgu10.
