time: avoid or clarify CEST
In the tzdata database CEST is not recognized as a timezone name.
It is used as the abbreviated name for daylight saving time in
Central Europe. Avoid using CEST in documentation as it suggests
that programs can parse dates that use CEST, which will typically
fail on Unix systems.
Updates #34913
