This collation has an empty pg_collation.collversion column, instead
of being set to the same value as "und-x-icu" to track its version.


postgres=# select * from pg_collation  where collname='unicode' \gx
-[ RECORD 1 ]-------+--------
oid                 | 963
collname            | unicode
collnamespace       | 11
collowner           | 10
collprovider        | i
collisdeterministic | t
collencoding        | -1
collcollate         | 
collctype           | 
colliculocale       | und
collicurules        | 
collversion         | 

The original patch implements this as an INSERT in which it would be easy to
fix I guess, but in current HEAD it comes as an entry in
include/catalog/pg_collation.dat:

{ oid => '963',
  descr => 'sorts using the Unicode Collation Algorithm with default
settings',
  collname => 'unicode', collprovider => 'i', collencoding => '-1',
  colliculocale => 'und' },

Should it be converted back into an INSERT or better left
in this file and collversion being updated afterwards?
