Install the "posixrules" timezone link in MSVC builds.

Install the "posixrules" timezone link in MSVC builds. Somehow, we'd missed ever doing this. The consequences aren't too severe: basically, the timezone library would fall back on its hardwired notion of the DST transition dates to use for a POSIX-style zone name, rather than obeying US/Eastern which is the intended behavior. The net effect would only be to obey current US DST law further back than it ought to apply; so it's not real surprising that nobody noticed.
