There aren't many people watching this page, so the question might simply have been unseen. However, I've asked in IRC (after trying to find the answer myself by looking through code/docs, without success). Quiddity (WMF) (talk) 16:45, 25 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
Answer: We are using PHP/Ubuntu's list of timezones for the city names (https://secure.php.net/manual/en/timezones.php) per https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T19797#225739 and https://raw.githubusercontent.com/wikimedia/mediawiki/master/includes/DefaultSettings.php Quiddity (WMF) (talk) 17:18, 25 August 2017 (UTC)Reply
