A transition between two offsets is normally the result of a daylight savings cutover. The discontinuity is normally a gap in spring and an overlap in autumn. ZoneOffsetTransition
models the transition between the two offsets.
There are two types of transition - a gap and an overlap. Gaps occur where there are local date-times that simply do not not exist. An example would be when the offset changes from +01:00 to +02:00. Overlaps occur where there are local date-times that exist twice. An example would be when the offset changes from +02:00 to +01:00.
ZoneOffsetTransition is immutable and thread-safe. @author Stephen Colebourne
