Comment (by SergeyBiryukov):

 In [changeset:"54227" 54227]:
 {{{
 #!CommitTicketReference repository="" revision="54227"
 I18N: Update list of continents and cities for the timezone selection.

 Based on a two-way comparison between the available timezone city names in
 PHP 5.6.20 and PHP 8.2.0.

 Lists of available timezone names have been retrieved using the PHP
 `timezone_identifiers_list()` function.

 See: [https://3v4l.org/ro1vY/rfc#vgit.master timezone_identifiers_list()
 output and comparison].

 Note: Both spellings of `Kiev`/`Kyiv` need to be in the list to allow it
 to work PHP cross-version.
 * The “old” version — `Kiev` — will be used as the basis to find the
 localized name for the timezone dropdown lists on PHP 5.6 to 8.1.
 * The corrected spelling — `Kyiv` — will be used to find the localized
 name on PHP 8.2 and up.

 Follow-up to [50555], [54207], [54217].

 Props jrf, costdev.
 See #56468.
