- Strength is now set once, instead of at each comparison, to improve
performance and fix potential locking issues
- Add a way to enable "numeric" collation (aka "natural order")
"Renaming" means the icu namespace is suffixed with the version number,
atm icu_55. Using "renaming" allows to use two different versions of ICU,
thus easing upgrades. For instance haikuwebkit uses a current version of ICU,
while the system uses a newer one after an upgrade.
* Replace all uses of the icu namespace in our public headers, with a macro
defaulting to icu. As the namespace is only used for private fields pointers,
there should be no impact.
* Locale kit *.cpp have to import the macro from <unicode/uversion.h> *before*
including any locale headers. Ditto for a Time preferences cpp file. This way,
the correct current icu namespace is referenced.
* Fixes bug #12057.
for message formatting
* adjust LocaleKit to use namespace 'icu', as ICU has been configured to no longer
use a version specific namespace
* adjust LocaleKit to general API changes in ICU 4.8
Note: all software using ICU (like WebPositive) needs to be rebuilt!
Note: the ICU package for PPC needs to be updated before it can be used!

* refactored private/mutable stuff out of LocaleRoster into MutableLocaleRoster
* moved management of Locale/Time settings file and broadcasting of any changes
out of preflets and into MutableLocaleRoster
* added proper sorting to the listviews of the Locale preflet
* the Time preflet no longer overlaps long timezone names into the actual time
* several fixes with respect to leaking ICU objects, esp. in BCountry
* the locale roster no longer passes out references to its own BCountry object,
but uses copies, instead - this makes locking superfluous, as the clients'
BCountry objects can no longer be changed by the setting a new default
country in the locale roster
* removed pretty useless POSIX-style symbol fetching from BCountry - if we
need that at all, it should live in the dedicated formatter classes
* adjusted readonlybootprompt, dstcheck and Deskbar to the changed Locale API
* refactored existing Time-formatter into TimeUnitFormat and DurationFormat
(the latter of which is now used by AboutSystem)
* added stubs for Date, DateTime and Time formatters
* lots of coding style fixes throughout the Locale Kit and the Locale and Time
preflets
This will probably break most external apps making use of the Locale Kit - it
does break WebPositive.

* Fix archiving/unarchiving to provide at least a valid object. However, ICU archiving system doesn't look like it's working well.

* integrating most of the locale kit into the build (and image)
* removed LocaleBuild.h and _IMPEXP_LOCALE since that does not make
sense for elf (which usually exports all symbols anyway)
* added a couple of locale kit related pseudo targets for convenience
Hey, some of that stuff already seems to work :-)
