Documenting timezone setting in initdb
Setting the time zone of the newly created cluster from initdb via the
environment variable isn't documented in the initdb section (but very handy).
Attached is a patch adding a mention of TZ in the Environment section.
Unless objections I'll add it to the open commitfest.

Looks good to me, applied. 9.4 is still open for docs patches so I
back-patched it there, as this is clearly an omission/bug.

What is a "full time zone name"? Where is that term documented?
Also, I wouldn't write "should use", but "will use".

Full time zone name is the term used in section 8.5.3 for the America/New_York
style time zone names, perhaps linking to that section like how we link to the
locale section etc would be appropriate?

Fair enough, that does make it clearer.
I can submit a patch with these changes if you want?

Fixed it. Thanks for the pointer.
