[icu] Add option to specify --with-data-packaging

[Poldraunic]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

ICU supports multiple ways of packaging data files. The behaviour is controlled by --with-data-packaging argument during configuration.

More info here: https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/icu_data/#building-and-linking-against-icu-data

Proposed solution

Add a "feature" for every option?

I don't mind take it on myself, I am just not sure how to go about it.

Add a "feature" for every option?

Alternatives should go through triplet. Example: osg.

@Osyotr ooh, nice! Thank you.

That's exactly what I was looking for. I'll whip something up next week for the ICU.

The osg way does work, but something during compilation goes wrong when using files or archive packaging option.

From what I could gather there was/is an issue where icudata.lst file is not generated (?) in time:

1. https://trac.macports.org/ticket/17203
2. https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/blob/3edabbe1407e2d4d8ce5b78bab8abf42cc966d10/ports/icu/fix_parallel_build_on_windows.patch

I am seeing the same error message as in the first link:

/bin/sh: line 1: out/tmp/icudata.lst: No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [Makefile:274: out/tmp/icudata.lst] Error 1
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
make: *** [Makefile:153: all-recursive] Error 2

I've tried using one thread for compilation, but got the same error. This leads to me believe that something else is going on here. No idea how to fix it though. I am a noob when it comes to Autoconf/Make. My branch is here if anyone wants to take a peek.
