I've contacted Postgres Professional. Marina Polyakova had kindly provided their patch.
The patch allows to use libc locale with ICU collation as default for cluster or database.

It seems that this patch brings important long-awaited feature and deserves to be included in last v11 commitfest.
Peter, everyone, do you agree with this? Or should we better adapt this work through v12 cycle?

I'm planning to provide review asap and do necessary changes if required (this was discussed with Marina and Postgres
Professional).

Best regards, Andrey Borodin.
