[Bug 1683595] [NEW] tzdata doesn't remove /etc/timezone on purge

[Steve Langasek]

Public bug reported:

Since version 2017a-1, tzdata will clean up /etc/localtime on purge.
But it leaves behind /etc/timezone, despite the fact that in some cases
it creates this file.  I think tzdata should own removing it on purge
also.
