core/subprojects

What's this? What is this?

• These are subprojects accessible to the core meson project.

icu

• When building for Linux, ICU must already be installed. The system ICU will be used instead of the subproject.
• Patches for icu (i.e. meson build files) are in packagefiles/icu
• It would be preferable to use meson's wrapdb, and in fact the patchfiles here are sourced from that project.
• However, having our own patchfiles allows for slimming down ICU, at least until the wrapdb version is more configurable mesonbuild/wrapdb#950
