I apologize about the patch churn here. I implemented several
approaches to see what feedback I get, and now it looks like we're
returning to a previous idea (the "builtin" provider).
In v16:
1. We need LOCALE to apply to all providers.
2. We need LOCALE=C to give the memcmp/pg_ascii behavior in all cases
(unless overridden by a separate LC_COLLATE or LC_CTYPE parameter).
Those are the biggest problems raised in this thread, and the patches
to accomplish those things are in scope for v16.
After we sort those out, there are two loose ends:
* What do we do in the case where the environment has LANG=C.UTF-8 (as
some buildfarm members do)? Is an error acceptable in that case?
* Do we move icu_validation_level back to ERROR?
