date: remove some ambiguity in tzdata references

Browse Source 
The use of 'package' in this could be understood to mean a FreeBSD
package provided by pkg, rather than the fact that we use data provided
by IANA.  Re-word it to clearly identify `tzdata` as the IANA Time Zone
Database on first use, then drop subsequent uses of the word 'package'.
