Please unblock package icu

This upload addresses CVE-2013-0900 and closes RC-bug 702346.  The
change came from upstream and was backported to ICU 4.8 by people at Red
Hat for Fedora 17.  I took their patch, removed the extraneous inclusion
of one of the .orig files from it, and applied it with updated DEP-3
headers.  The resulting package passes its own test suite.

The attached debdiff is relative to 4.8.1.1-11 even though 4.8.1.1-10 is
the version in wheezy.  This is because 4.8.1.1-11 has already been
unblocked and would have transitioned tomorrow, so I wanted to give you
a diff against the most recently approved package.

unblock icu/4.8.1.1-12
