+- Update to new upstream release 58.1
+* CLDR 30.0.2: For details of the many changes in CLDR, see
+  CLDR 30. Some things to note:
+* For some combinations of numbering system (arab, arabext, latn)
+  and/or locale (ar, fa, he), there were changes to the
+  bidirectional control characters used with certain symbols
+  (percent, minus, plus), and changes to number patterns (currency
+  and/or percent, including addition of bidirectional control
+  characters in some cases).
+* Thhe bidirectional controls used for such purposes include U+061C
+  ARABIC LETTER MARK (ALM), which requires use of the bidirectional
+  algorithm from Unicode 6.3 or later.
+* The time separator for Norwegian locales (nb, nn) was changed to
+  be ':' throughout.
+* Unicode 9.0: Version 9.0 adds exactly 7,500 characters, for a
+  total of 128,172 characters. These additions include six new
+  scripts, 19 symbols for the new 4K TV standard, and 72 new
+  emoji characters.
+* Draft Emoji 4.0 data
+* Emoji updates for word & line breaking
+* UBiDiTransform/BidiTransform API for convenient transformation of
+  text between different Bidi layouts.
+* MeasureFormat API for measurement unit display names
+* Most COUNT and LIMIT enum constants have been deprecated
+* SpoofChecker: Handling of "whole script confusables" has been
+  removed from ICU, in accordance with its removal from UTS #39
+  Version 9.0.0 and the removal of the corresponding Unicode data
+  file.
+* Greek uppercasing ("el" locale ID) removes most diacritics.
+* More robust locale data loading across ICU implementation code.
+* Reduced heap memory usage in DateTimePatternGenerator
