I just wanted to get this conversation out of slack and have documented for historical purposes.

The unicode standards are always updated

LBRYcrd is use the ICU library for unicode support v57.1. This uses UCA 8.0

Among our different services, there are 3 that standout in requiring unicode support also.

LBRYNet - The base lbry uses UCA 11.0
Chainquery(MySQL) - MySQL 8.0 users UCA 9.0
Lighthouse(ElasticSearch) - as of yet unknown

@lyoshenka Has already made the call that for Chainquery we will wait and see if there will be any issues between UCA 8.0 and UCA 9.0.

The list of migration issues are below

https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode9.0.0/#Migration
https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode10.0.0/#Migration
https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode11.0.0/#Migration

So the question is do we care? If not lets close this issue.

After upstream merge, update Boost and ICU versions to match Unicode 11. In fact, can we ditch the lbrycrd_dependencies repo and use the "depends" folder instead?

Upstream merge now includes ICU 62.
