A new isdst parameter is added to several of the tzinfo methods to handle time ambiguity during DST changeovers.

None will raise an AmbiguousTimeError exception if the time specified was during a DST change over. It will also raise a NonExistentTimeError if a time is specified during the "missing time" in a change to DST.

I think None should be the default.
