A value object representing a time zone. A time zone is simply a named offset (in seconds) from GMT. Note that two time zone objects are only equivalent if they have both the same offset, and the same name.
A TimeZone instance may be used to convert a Time value to the corresponding time zone.
The class also includes all, which returns a list of all TimeZone objects.

Locate a specific time zone object. If the argument is a string, it is interpreted to mean the name of the timezone to locate. If it is a numeric value it is either the hour offset, or the second offset, of the timezone to find. (The first one with that offset will be returned.) Returns nil if no such time zone is known to the system.

Return an array of all TimeZone objects. There are multiple TimeZone objects per time zone, in many cases, to make it easier for users to find their own time zone.

Create a new TimeZone object with the given name and offset. The offset is the number of seconds that this time zone is offset from UTC (GMT). Seconds were chosen as the offset unit because that is the unit that Ruby uses to represent time zone offsets (see Time#utc_offset).
