timezone base offset range to small

Description

Hi,

posix_time_zone.hpp checks in line 254 and 255 the base offset between -12 and 12 hours. In the data file date_time_zonespec.csv are timezones like "Pacific/Kiritimati" with offset +14. 

253	        // base offset must be within range of -12 hours to +12 hours
254	        if(base_utc_offset_ < time_duration_type(-12,0,0) ||
255	            base_utc_offset_ > time_duration_type(12,0,0))
256	        {
257	            throw bad_offset(posix_time::to_simple_string(base_utc_offset_));
258	        }

The base offset should within range -14 hours to +14 hours.

The exact valid range is from -12 to +14 hours. See here: ​http://www.worldtimezone.com/utc/utc+1200.html
