Revise uses of UVector in Locale and Region related code to better handle
memory allocation failures. This is one of an ongoing series of commits to
address similar problems with UVector usage throughout ICU.
The changes involve switching uses of UVector::addElementX() to the new
adoptElement() or addElement() functions, as appropriate, and using
LocalPointers for tracking memory ownership.
In Region::loadRegionData(), improved the overall error detection and recovery.
Change UnicodeString::clone() to return a nullptr if the underlying copy
constructor produces a bogus string. This can happen if the copy constructor
encounters a memory allocation failure in allocating the copy's internal string
buffer, or if the string being copied was already bogus.
The change is consistent with other ICU clone functions, which are generally
defined to return nullptr in case of errors.
Revise uses of UVector in vtzone.cpp to better handle memory allocation
failures. This is one of an ongoing series of commits to address similar
problems with UVector usage throughout ICU.
The changes primarily involve switching uses of UVector::addElementX() to the
new adoptElement() or addElement() functions, as appropriate, and using
LocalPointers for tracking memory ownership.
Revise uses of UVector in time zone related code to better handle memory
allocation failures. This is one of an ongoing series of commits to address
similar problems with UVector usage throughout ICU.
The changes involve switching uses of UVector::addElementX() to the new
adoptElement() or addElement() functions, as appropriate, and using
LocalPointers for tracking memory ownership.
Checks that the build process completes without failure and that the

ICU-21649 Fix trigger mechanism.
Update ICU (main branch and upcoming version 70) halfway to 2021b.
- with Samoa & Jordan rule updates
- with corrected pre-1993 transitions in Malawi (?), Portugal, etc.
- without for now (due to release timing) renaming Pacific/Enderbury to Pacific/Kanton
- without merging many zones whose timestamps agree since 1970
In this PR, I am updating the version number from 70.0.1 for the BRS task.
Previously, we had frontloaded part of this, so the diff in this PR are not as numerous.
It has also been decided that we should differentiate frontloaded tasks and RC tasks by having the version numbers being:
Frontload version number: XX.X.X (70.0.1 -> Major.minor.patch)
RC/GA version number: XX.X (70.1 -> Major.minor)
I've added some documentation for this, for future releases :)
