Description

The ICU unstable C++ ABI has been a huge pain for me and many other developers, it seems the project has finally found a solution to the issue, obviously dependent libraries will have to be updated, in my case the most used one is `boost::locale`.

It would be very nice if `boost::locale` could be converted to the new C++ Header-Only APIs, this would allow updating ICU without needing to recompile every project that depends on it.

This is likely going to be a breaking change as I assume all ICU versions before 76 won't be compatible with the new API.
