Add locale en-ZA

[lauft]

This adds the locale en-ZA (South Africa) according to the Public Holidays Act (Act No 36 of 1994).

Before merging, the following has to be resolved:

• [x] Naming convention for compensatory holidays

By definition 2.1, whenever any public holiday falls on a Sunday, the following Monday shall be a public holiday. How is such a holiday then referred to? With the same name as the actual holiday? I take that the holiday itself is not shifted.

[girtu]

Yes the holiday itself doesn't shift so I guess the best approach would be that it uses the same name.

[lauft]

I will implement it then such that it has the same name, but with a note "Supplement".

Or is there a better term? 🤔

@girtu How is the rule for supplemental holidays handled for 12-25 Christmas Day? If it is a sunday, then - by that rule - the following monday shall be a holiday. However, 12-26 is already a holiday (Day of Goodwill). So is the supplemental holiday then forfeit or shifted further to 12-27?

[girtu]

Hi - that is correct. In that situation the 27/12 would not be a holiday.

@girtu Rebased and merged. Thanks for your contribution! ❤️

Hope you can give a heads-up in case there are changes to the holiday laws in the future.
