Currently icu4j is an arch package because of the icu4j-eclipse package
installing into _libdir/eclipse and rpm not supporting arch subpackages for
noarch main packages.
icu4j and icu4j-eclipse should become noarch packages where icu4j-eclipse
should install it's current content into e.g. _datadir/icu4j-eclipse and get
the contents properly used and symlinked from eclipse-build. This will have 2
positive effects:
* remove the need for bootstrap builds in secondary archs because they reuse
the noarch packages from primary archs directly
* simplify eclipse.spec as icu4j won't need to be special cased and created
symlinks won't need to be deleted manually in the spec.
