Fix tests on NixOS (#9209) (#9285)

* Replace `/bin/sleep` with just `sleep`, i.e. use environment variable
  `$PATH` to locate binary.
* Replace `/usr/share/zoneinfo` with `$TZDIR` when it is defined,
  fallback to hardcoded path otherwise. This is the same behavior that
  Glibc2 normally have, see man 3 tzset.

(cherry picked from commit 8ed3dac1dc)
