Bug description:
  [ Impact ]

  Updating the tzdata package will fail on systems that have a legacy
  timezone selected (that is not updated to a recent one during dpkg-
  reconfigure). Example:

  ```
  $ schroot-wrapper -p tzdata -c jammy -u root
  (jammy)root@host:~# ln -sf /usr/share/zoneinfo/EST5EDT /etc/localtime
  (jammy)root@host:~# DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive dpkg-reconfigure tzdata
  (jammy)root@host:~# echo $?
  10
  ```

  [ Test Plan ]

  Test cases were added to the autopkgtest to cover the testing:

  * debconf: test_legacy_timezones

  So the test plan is to check that the autopkgtest succeeds. The
  example given above should not fail.

  [ Where problems can occur ]

  The fix touches the code that is used for configuring the timezone.
  That can cause package update to fail. There are autopkgtest to avoid
  regressions.
