A bad news, ICU team refused to support UnicodeBig because it is not

A good news is that I realize there is a smooth way to support these
charsets. I tried to implement a SPI to accept the name "UnicodeBig"
and it worked. We could support any other charsets and fix the bug
which ICU team hesitated to do this way. I think it also brings us
the extensibility, do you have any concern about implementing a
harmony SPI? I'll go on if no one objects.
Hey Tony, if we only consider io/lang to support UnicodeBig, will the thing
be simpler?
