Since MDEV-18778, timezone tables get changed to innodb
to allow them to be replicated to other galera nodes.
Even without galera, timezone tables could be declared innodb.
With the standalone innodb tables, the mysql_tzinfo_to_sql takes
approximately 27 seconds.
With the transactions enabled in this patch, 1.2 seconds is
the approximate load time.
While explicit checks for the engine of the time zone tables could be
done, or checks against !opt_skip_write_binlog, non-transactional
storage engines will just ignore the transactional state without
even a warning so its safe to enact globally.
Leap seconds are pretty much ignored as they are a single insert
statement and have gone out of favour as they have caused MariaDB
stalls in the past.
There were two problems:
(1) If user wanted same time zone information on all nodes in the Galera
cluster all updates were not replicated as time zone information was
stored on MyISAM tables. This is fixed on Galera by altering time zone
tables to InnoDB while they are modified.
(2) If user wanted different time zone information to nodes in the Galera
cluster TRUNCATE TABLE for time zone tables was replicated by Galera
destroying time zone information from other nodes. This is fixed
on Galera by introducing new option for mysql_tzinfo_to_sql_symlink
tool --skip-write-binlog to disable Galera replication while
time zone tables are modified.

Factory timezone is supposed "For companies who don't want to put time zone
specification in their installation procedures. When users run date, they'll get
the message. Also useful for the "comp.sources" version."
This "message" is exposed as timezone abbreviation, which is supposed to be
short and thus may cause generated INSERT statements to fail.
Do not attempt to load Factory timezone.
Merged lp:maria/maria-10.0-galera up to revision 3879.
Added a new functions to handler API to forcefully abort_transaction,
producing fake_trx_id, get_checkpoint and set_checkpoint for XA. These
were added for future possiblity to add more storage engines that
could use galera replication.
