On Windows, test_zoneinfo.test_bad_keys() fails without this fix if tzdata is installed.

vstinner@WIN C:\victor\python\main>env\scripts\python -m test test_zoneinfo -m test_bad_keys -v
...
ERROR: test_bad_keys (test.test_zoneinfo.test_zoneinfo.CTZDataTests.test_bad_keys)

test_zoneinfo.test_bad_keys() pass with this fix (if tzdata is installed).

vstinner@WIN C:\victor\python\main>env\scripts\python -m test test_zoneinfo -m test_bad_keys -v

Result: SUCCESS

LGTM

Test fail is unrelated, and there is no need to add another test since this is covered by existing ones as you noted. Though I would not mind if there was a comment explaining why this is done. e.g.

# Workaround for Windows, see gh-85702

I think there should be a test for this on Windows.

@ZeroIntensity

There already was, see Victor's comment: #136117 (comment)

So I assume we have no CI/Buildbots with tzdata installed.

Yeah, I know, intuition is telling me that we don't want tests that incidentally catch a bug. But I didn't realize that there aren't buildbots with tzdata installed, so I guess it's a moot point.

There is already test_zoneinfo.test_bad_keys().

LGTM as well. Looking at the test, it does seem to be exercising exactly what I'd wanted. We should probably try to get tzdata installed on one of the Windows buildbots.

I hope I get a definitive reply to my question on the Discord... I can install it on mine but I will probably have to drop it to unstable.

Sorry, @vstinner, I could not cleanly backport this to 3.13 due to a conflict.
Please backport using cherry_picker on command line.
