At indicated by the pre-existing comment, the lazy zone expansion can be
only resumed from STD (save == 0) zone. However, the current condition
for stopping on DST (save != 0) doesn't ensure that, as some rule specify
transitions between DST zones. For example Y rule used by America/Dawson
August 1945 transion only change letters:
Y 1942 o - F 9 2 1 W
Y 1945 o - Au 14 23u 1 P
This patch correct the condition, by using next_rule (i.e. one applying
after last expanded zone): either there is no zone (we default to STD)
or it have save zero.
libstdc++-v3/ChangeLog:
PR libstdc++/116110
* src/c++20/tzdb.cc (time_zone::_M_get_sys_info): Correct
condition for stopping zone geration before STD zone.
* testsuite/std/time/time_zone/116110.cc (test_dawson):
Add test for America/Dawson August 1945 transition.

This addresses the root cause and provides much more targeted solution
for the problem described "Always seed info.offset and info.save from
the active rule." in Alvaro 5/5 patch:
https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/libstdc++/2026-May/066526.html.
As this change is very minimal and affect only cases of sequence of
DST zones (we expand more zones), I think this is very safe to backport.
Testing on x86_64-linux. *time_zone* test passed, in all standard modes
and -m32/debug. OK for trunk and GCC-16.
