Hi, webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~omajid/webrevs/system-icu/00/
This implements support for linking against the system-installed ICU instead of building and linking against the bundled copy of ICU in OpenJDK8. Now someone building OpenJDK can delete the .../font/layout directory and use configure to build completely against the system headers and libraries. I had to move SunLayoutEngine.cpp so the #include would be "layout/..", which is where the system-installed ICU headers are. It now also matches the class name (which is sun.font.SunLayoutEngine, not sun.font.layout.SunLayoutEngine). I tried to keep all new ICU-related changes next to the existing freetype-using-logic since they are both text related. FYI: I am quite sure the build breaks if built using the old build system; I will fix that next. Any comments or suggestions?
