This enables "classic" desktop builds of ICU4C for both ARM (32-bit)
and ARM64 (64-bit) on Windows.
All but the two samples "cal" and "date" in the "allinone" project now
have ARM and ARM64 project configurations, and build for Windows Desktop
ARM/ARM64.
Note: In order to build the ARM/ARM64 data DLL, you need to first build
x64/Release, as the ARM/ARM build uses the x64 bits in order to be able
to cross-compile for ARM/ARM64. This allows for completely building
ARM/ARM64 binaries using only x64 hardware.
The ARM/ARM64 builds require using a newer version of the Windows SDK
than 8.1, so they have a separate WindowsTargetPlatformVersion which
uses Windows 10 SDK version 10.0.16299.0 (aka RS3), which is the first
version of the Windows SDK to support building ARM64 desktop applications.
In addition this also greatly cleans-up the ICU4C ".vcxproj" files, in
order to remove redundant parts, fix inconsistencies, and make them more
readable. This introduces two new variables in the shared `*.props`
files: `IcuBinOutputDir` and `IcuLibOutputDir` in order to further
reduce the amount of duplicated lines in the individual ".vcxproj"
files themselves.
This also changes the pkgdata tool command line options to decouple the
ARM/ARM64 flags from the UWP flag, and adds a generic architecture
option (-a) for passing in the value of the linker "/MACHINE:" argument
on the command line. (Ex: -a ARM64).
Additionally this change also adds another option to pkgdata (-b) to
set /DYNAMICBASE on the data DLL, which is required for the ARM64 builds.
Both of these changes also work towards future work in order to enable
full ARM64 desktop builds without UWP.
This change also removes a number of ifdefs/forks in the ICU code based
on U_PLATFORM_HAS_WINUWP_API, and changes them to use ICU_DATA_DIR_WINDOWS
instead. This is needed to unblock the usage of the data DLL in the
UWP scenario, but also helps to further reduce the divergence of the UWP
projects from regular Windows builds.

This change adds support for building the ICU4C UWP projects for ARM64.
Additionally it adds CI builds for ARM32 and ARM64.

- added PKGDATA_TRAILING_SPACE to all of the pkgdataMakefile.in file.
- NOTE: Users who create their own pkgdata.inc / icupkg.inc files may need
to recreate this PKGDATA_TRAILING_SPACE behavior.
- used the above variable, normally undefined, in mh-* files that need a trailing space
- Also, fixed use of system() in pkgdata.cpp per ICU-20538
This was causing pkgdata to return a zero status even on clang
failure, masking this issue.

- remove the old LocaleMatcher implementation code
- move the XLocaleMatcher code into LocaleMatcher, same for test
- remove unused internal methods
- stop comparing old vs. new performance
- generate langInfo.txt resource bundle file with precomputed likely-subtags and matcher data
- make genrb handle multi-line binary values
- load likely-subtags & distance data from new langInfo.res bundle
- test that built data == loaded data
- move data builders to tools, no more runtime dependency on builder code
Builds res_index.txt based on directory glob minus aliases read from deprecates XML file.
In ICU 64, please use the ICU Data Build Tool instead of reslocal.mk for locale filtering.
- see also ICU-20062
- add a `-B` option to the two python invocations on Windows
- set PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE in configure.ac and icudefs.mk.in

- If icu/source/data/locales/root.txt missing, skip
python rules.mk generation.
- Also, create build directories properly as needed
- Also includes noise changes to configure
(configure was probably generated using unreleased
autoconf 2.70 or 2.69 + patches)
- eac8f4b31a did not
regen configure properly, so BUILDTOOL_OPTS is now
ICU_DATA_BUILDTOOL_OPTS
- Fixes filterrb.cpp to check for wildcard when at a leaf.
- Adds additional verbose logging to genrb.
- Fixes filtration to add deps to dep_targets instead of dep_files.
- Separates dep_files to common_dep_files and specific_dep_files.
