Description
-------

The patch contains updated holidays for Poland. This would fix bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=365153.


For general information about polish holidays (especially the ones we do not work in Poland), see:

- see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_holidays_in_Poland
- polish law act: http://isap.sejm.gov.pl/DetailsServlet?id=WDU20150000090

Changes:
- [most important, this HAS TO BE MAINLINED!!!] 6th of January is now a public holiday, since 2011 (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epiphany_(holiday)#Poland)
- '?ledzik' is not really a religious holiday, this is just the last day of carnival (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carnival#Poland), there are no special religious celebrations at this day in Poland
- moved Valentine's Day ('Walentynki') to civil holidays; I'm not really sure what is the different between 'civil' and 'cultural' holidays, but it seems no sense to have just the Valentine's Day in cultural and nothing else there
- 'Zaduszki' (full name: 'Dzie? Zaduszny') is definitely a religious holiday (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_Souls%27_Day, https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zaduszki)
- 'Wigilia' is also a religious holiday (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christmas_Eve, https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wigilia_Bo%C5%BCego_Narodzenia)
- 'Wniebowzi?cie NMP' ('Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary') is a bit complicated; this is both Army Day and Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_holidays_in_Poland). Since in the polish law act the Assumption is mentioned, it is now a 'public religious', and the Army Day ('Dzie? Wojska Polskiego') was added as a civil one
- 'Lany Poniedzia?ek' ('Wet Monday') is a (still live) slavic-pagan tradition; since it is not mentioned in the polish law act, I have moved it to civil (this day is a holiday, because it is also a second day of Easter). I am not 100% sure about this change, any help would be welcome
- 'Dzie? Programisty' ('Programmers Day') added as a civil holiday; I couldn't resist :)
- added 'T?usty Czwartek' ('Fat Thursday' - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_Thursday#Poland); since there are no special religious celebrations this day, I have marked it as civil
- added 'Dzie? Górnika' ('Miners Day' - https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barb%C3%B3rka) - there are traditional celebration held in mining areas of Poland
- added 'Dzie? Edukacji Narodowej' ('Teacher's Day' - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Teachers%27_Day), it is celebrated in every school
- renamed '?w' Miko?aj' to 'Miko?ajki', as this is more common name - see https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miko%C5%82ajki_(zwyczaj)
- polish 'Andrzejki' is a night 29/30 November (again, slavic-pagan tradition - https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrzejki), not really the same as 'St. Andrew's Day'; moved to 29th November, as 30th November is already after the feast
- daylight saving time added (same time is in the whole European Union) - 'Czas letni', 'Czas zimowy'
- added 'Prima Aprilis' ('April Fools' Day')
- added 'Dzie? Solidarno?ci i Wolno?ci' ('Solidarity and Freedom Day' - see https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dzie%C5%84_Solidarno%C5%9Bci_i_Wolno%C5%9Bci)
- added 'Dzie? Zwyci?stwa' ('Victory Day' - see https://pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dzie%C5%84_Zwyci%C4%99stwa)
- added equinoxes and solstices
- added comment about polish school holidays
