/** A TimeZoneAdjustment represents the z= fields contained within a TimeDescription.
* A TimeZoneAdjustment
* specifies timezone changes which take place during or in between sessions
* announced in a session description.
*
* From RFC 2327:
*
* To schedule a repeated session which spans a change from daylight- saving
* time to standard time or
* vice-versa, it is necessary to specify offsets from the base repeat times.
* This is required because different
* time zones change time at different times of day, different countries change
* to or from daylight time on
* different dates, and some countries do not have daylight saving time at all.
*
* Thus in order to schedule a session that is at the same time winter and
* summer, it must be possible to
* specify unambiguously by whose time zone a session is scheduled.
* To simplify this task for receivers, we
* allow the sender to specify the NTP time that a time zone adjustment
* happens and the offset from the time
* when the session was first scheduled. The "z" field allows the sender to
* specify a list of these adjustment
* times and offsets from the base time.
*
* Please refer to IETF RFC 2327 for a description of SDP.
