LibLocale was split off from LibUnicode a couple years ago to reduce the
number of applications on SerenityOS that depend on CLDR data. Now that
we use ICU, both LibUnicode and LibLocale are actually linking in this
data. And since vcpkg gives us static libraries, both libraries are over
30MB in size.
This patch reverts the separation and merges LibLocale into LibUnicode
again. We now have just one library that includes the ICU data.
Further, this will let LibUnicode share the locale cache that previously
would only exist in LibLocale.
There are a couple of differences here due to using ICU:
1. Titlecasing behaves slightly differently. We previously transformed
"123dollars" to "123Dollars", as we would use word segmentation to
split a string into words, then transform the first cased character
to titlecase. ICU doesn't go quite that far, and leaves the string
as "123dollars". While this is a behavior change, the only user of
this API is the `text-transform: capitalize;` CSS rule, and we now
match the behavior of other browsers.
2. There isn't an API to compare strings with case insensitivity without
allocating case-folded strings for both the left- and right-hand-side
strings. Our implementation was previously allocation-free; however,
in a benchmark, ICU is still ~1.4x faster.
The only user is currently String::equals_ignoring_case, but LibRegex
will need to do the same case-folded comparison with UTF-32 data. As it
turns out, the comparison works with all Unicode view types without much
fuss.
We currently fully casefold the left- and right-hand sides to compare
two strings with case-insensitivity. Now, we casefold one code point at
a time, storing the result in a view for comparison, until we exhaust
both strings.
The Unicode spec defines much more complicated caseless matching
algorithms in its Collation spec. This implements the "basic" case
folding comparison.
Since AK can't refer to LibUnicode directly, the strategy here is that
if you need case transformations, you can link LibUnicode and receive
them. If you try to use either of these methods without linking it, then
you'll of course get a linker error (note we don't do any fallbacks to
e.g. ASCII case transformations). If you don't need these methods, you
don't have to link LibUnicode.
