Prepare for ICU update

- libicule and libiculx do not exist anymore in newer ICU versions
(harfbuzz replaces them), but we didn't actually use them, so remove
them from the build feature and from the package dependencies
- Add namespace usage marcos since the newer ICU packages put ICU things
in a namespace, making it easier to have multiple versions of ICU used
side by side.

No functional change intended, but this makes it possible to build the
code with either ICU 57 (for gcc2) or 66 (for other architectures).


# 73de5837 10-May-2015 Jérôme Duval <jerome.duval@gmail.com>

Update icu x86_64 package with namespace renaming enabled.

"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.


# d68d73f7 27-Dec-2011 Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>

Improve timezone names returned by BTimeZone.

* Use TimeZone::SHORT specifier instead of SHORT_COMMONLY_USED, since
the former yields more appropriate (textual) values. Strangely enough,
it used to be the other way around, which is why we didn't used SHORT
in the past.


# d1d8fda6 19-Oct-2010 Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>

Next step of Locale Kit refactoring:
* BLocale now keeps language and country completely separate and
mixes the formatting conventions into the current language's locale
when formatting dates and times (needs to be done for number- and
currency-formatting, too, since the digits may not be in the
preferred language)
* optimized fetching of the flag icons such that they are all loaded
in one go (by the locale roster) - this alone speeds up the Locale
preflet considerably
* worked on fixing the language confusion in the Locale preflet
* fixed a couple of bugs in the Locale preflet that would lead to
illegal characters being displayed in the date-subpart menus

# aa8372c4 24-Aug-2010 Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>

* changed BTimeZone to use BLanguage instead of BLocale, as that what represents
the locale of messages (timezone names in this case)

git-svn-id: file:///srv/svn/repos/haiku/haiku/trunk@38340 a95241bf-73f2-0310-859d-f6bbb57e9c96


# 3bdedcf3 24-Aug-2010 Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>

* added support for getting the names of a timezone for a specific locale
(not currently used anywhere, but should be part of the BTimeZone interface)

# 750e57b8 23-Aug-2010 Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>

Optimized Time preflet:
* use upon-demand initialization in BTimeZone to avoid unnecessary work
* renamed BTimeZone::Code() to BTimeZone::ID() and adjusted all callers
* avoid using BCountry in the Time preflet for the time being, this means
the icon-flags are gone for now (but they could be re-added if the demand
is pressing ;-)
* group the timezones by regions and then by country instead
The performance improvement is considerable and I personally think the new grouping is an improvement, too. Please share your thoughts!

# e4da3d66 05-Aug-2010 Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>

* added support for all the different names (std/dst, long/short) and daylight
support to BTimeZone

# 3bf890b9 03-Aug-2010 Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>

* do not leak ICU timezone
* minor cleanup

# 38ac8def 01-Aug-2010 Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>

Largish cleanup sweep concerning the Locale Kit (sorry it got so big):
* 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.

# 99d2aa98 29-Jul-2010 Oliver Tappe <zooey@hirschkaefer.de>

Improved the Time preflet (still not working properly, though)
* basically rewrote TimeZone to sport a nicer to use interface
* adjusted all users of TimeZone accordingly
* changed TZDisplay to show the Date next to the label, in
order to avoid that long timezone names draw all over it
* the timezone listview is now properly sorted according
to the current language (using BCollator)
* fixed a couple of bugs (overflows, etc.) that caused
incorrect GMT offsets to be used during computations

# 8b39afea 28-Jul-2010 Adrien Destugues <pulkomandy@pulkomandy.ath.cx>

* Fix wrong function call in TimeZone.Code() leading to a localized string being returned instead of the expected code.

# 4ae5a452 26-Jul-2010 Adrien Destugues <pulkomandy@pulkomandy.ath.cx>

* Rewrote the timezone selection part of the time preflet to make use of ICU instead of our custom TZData.
* Not completely working yet, hte POSIX API isn't very happy about ICU timezone names.

# 282582c0 23-Jul-2010 Adrien Destugues <pulkomandy@pulkomandy.ath.cx>

* Bcountry : private methods start with underscore. The timezone list isnow actually a list of BTimeZone objects, that holdsall the needed info, not only the code. Also tweak the listing code to
remove duplicatesfromthe list generated by ICU.
* BTimeZone : remove Code, rename Name to GetName. The class is likely to change again for further optimization.
