gtimezone: Cache default timezone indefinitely

We cache GTimeZone instances to avoid expensive construction when the
same id is requested again.

However, if the NULL id is passed to g_time_zone_new(), we always
construct a new instance for the default/fallback timezone.

With the recent introduction of some heavy calculations[1], repeated
instance construction in such cases has visible performance impact in
nautilus list view and other such GtkTreeView consumers.

To avoid this, cache reference to a constructed default timezone and
use it the next time g_time_zone_new() is called with NULL argument,
as long as the default identifier doesn't change. We already did the
same for the local timezone[2].

Fixes: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/glib/-/issues/2204

Based on idea proposed by Sebastian Keller <skeller@gnome.org>.
