I took a look at this patch.
* Most callers will require "greedy" semantics, meaning that we need
* to find the longest such substring, not the shortest. For callers
* don't don't need greedy semantics, we can finish on the first
s/don't don't/that don't/ ?
- Assert(len1 > 0);
Assert(len2 > 0);
Is there a reason to remove this assert?
* (With nondeterministic collations, the search was already
* multibyte-aware, so we don't need this.)

The commit title could be changed to reflect that you are adding support for
multiple functions. The POSITION gives the impression that it is only for the
position() function. Something like
Support position search functions with nondeterministic collations
I did a couple of tests (some are shown below) and I didn't find issues.
postgres=# CREATE COLLATION coll_det (provider = icu, locale = '',
deterministic = true);

'@colStrength=primary;colCaseLevel=yes', deterministic = false);
