[PATCH v2 2/2] Simplify tzdb-related configuration

[Paul Eggert]

tzdb 2026b no longer needs -Wno-discarded-qualifiers or
-Wno-unused-variable.  From a suggestion by Joseph Myers in:
https://sourceware.org/pipermail/libc-alpha/2026-May/177312.html
* configure.ac (config-cflags-wno-discarded-qualifiers): Remove.
* timezone/Makefile (CFLAGS-zic.c): Remove -Wno-unused-variable,
$(config-cflags-wno-discarded-qualifiers).
