tzsetup: be explicit about *timezone* abbreviation

Description

tzsetup: be explicit about *timezone* abbreviation

During the install process tzsetup asks a question like

Does the abbreviation `EDT' look reasonable?

The installer asks lots of questions, some that relate to the previous
screen or topic and some that do not. A new user installed FreeBSD for
the first time and was confused by this question, not realizing that it
was asking whether the abbreviation is correct for the selected
timezone.
