icu-data.rlib is a library that makes available the Unicode Consortium's ICU (International
Components for Unicode) data repository without any C binding to libicu. At present, only the
UCM (UniCode Mapping) files (icu-data/charset) are handled.
Originally, this library was going to store the data uncompressed in Rust data structures.
However, this led to the library being over 1GB in size, and Cargo required 15GB of memory to
compile it. So, we're storing compressed versions in the library which are decompressed on
demand (see documentation of [ucm::request_mapping_file]).
