`os.time()` uses `mktime()` to specify time by the given table.
`mktime()` produces the call to `tzset()` to determine the system's
timezone. If the TZ variable does not appear in the environment, the
system timezone is used. The system timezone is configured by copying,
or linking, a file in the tzfile(5) format to /etc/localtime. So, if
this file is omitted (like in RED OS), the errno is set to a non-zero
value. This leads to the nil returned by the `os.time()` for -1 time
value.

This patch skips the test if this file is missed to be sure that we
don't obtain any false positive failures due to system
misconfigurations.
Branch: https://github.com/tarantool/luajit/tree/skaplun/fix-os-time-test-redos
Failed workflow: https://github.com/tarantool/tarantool/actions/runs/28585213455/job/84775371860?pr=12886#step:5:20692

Tested inside the following Docker:
FROM registry.red-soft.ru/ubi8/ubi-minimal:latest

RUN dnf update -y && \
    dnf install -y cmake vim make git curl gcc g++ gdb man && \
    dnf clean all
| docker build . --tag redos
| docker run --network=host -ti redos bash

Then clone LuaJIT and proceed as usual.

With the patch the test skipped:
| 1..0 # SKIP Unconfigured timezone rules

Changes in v2:

* Skip patch not for RED OS but for all distributions with unconfigured
  timezones (i.e. missing '/etc/localtime').
