After `test/jdk/java/util/TimeZone/CustomTzIDCheckDST.java` testcase was integrated, it failed on the AIX platform.
Error output
STDERR:
stdout: [];
stderr: [Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Got unexpected timezone information: Thu Aug 25 09:29:10 CEST 2022
at CustomTzIDCheckDST.runTZTest(CustomTzIDCheckDST.java:71)

By my investigation, `TZ=MEZ-1MESZ,M3.5.0,M10.5.0` timezone was changed to `Europe/Berlin` timezone on AIX platform.
It seems this situation is happened because older AIX did not support `MEZ-1MESZ,M3.5.0,M10.5.0` timezone by TZ environment variable.

AIX special code was implemented into `src/java.base/unix/native/libjava/TimeZone_md.c`.
Current AIX supports `TZ=EST5EDT,M3.2.0/2:00:00,M11.1.0/2:00:00` style.
I think implementation change is required.
Some pre-submit tests are failed, but I think these are not related this change since modified parts are just for AIX platform.
