Hi,

Please, review the tzdata2014f integration (with tzdata2014e related 
changes included too) [1] fix to JDK9: 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~aefimov/8049343/9/webrev.01/

The tzdata2014f changes are extensive and relates mostly to timezone 
short names changes + "Asia/Srednekolymsk" time zone were added.
Almost complete list of changes can be found in the JBS bug description 
[1], plus some changes wasn't documented in tzdata release notes - for 
such cases raw tzdata diff was used for the names modifications.

Two issues with JSR310 implementation were discovered during integration 
process:
First issue is related to the internal representation of the '24:00' 
value. The JSR310 implementation treats this value as a next day 00:00 
time. The workaround already exists in JSR310 code for similar entries 
and this failure is resolved in similar way [2] as part of this update.
For the second issue JDK-8051641 [3] was filled and 
'sun/util/calendar/zi/TestZoneInfo310.java' test is the only one that 
fails with this tzdata.
Other time zone related tests [4] passes without failures.

Thank you,
Aleksej
