Fix several transitions from 1940 through 1985, and supply
legal citations for the fixes. (Thanks to P Chan.)
In some cases we are still guessing what “midnight” means.

Also, improve citation to current law
(thanks to Ephraim Silverberg).

Correct several 1908 through 1960 transitions for Kenya and adjacent,
fixing several hazy entries originally derived from Shanks.
- Insert a transition from LMT to +0230 on 1908-05.
- The first transition to +03 was on 1928-06-30, not 1928-07.
- The later transition to +0230 was on 1930-01-04, not the guessed 01-01.
- The transition to +0245 was on 1936-12-31, not 1940.
- And the final transition to +03 was on 1942-07-31, not 1960.
(Thanks to P Chan.)

+# From Paul Eggert (2020-10-27):
+# Several of the midnight transitions mentioned above are ambiguous;
+# are they 00:00, 00:00s, 24:00, or 24:00s? When resolving these ambiguities,
+# try to minimize changes from previous tzdb versions, for lack of better info.
+# Commentary from previous versions is included below, to help explain this.
