Bug#962464: Remove ICU dependency

Package: libxml2 Bug #776254 requested that libxml2 uses ICU for character set conversion because of some unspecified issues with Chromium. This adds an otherwise useless, multi-megabyte dependency (larger than libxml2 itself). I propose to revert that change. This means that libxml2 will use

Bug#816280: Binary incompatibility between debugperl and perl

Package: perl-debug Version: 5.20.2-2 The layout of interpreter variables is different in the debug and normal version of the perl binary. This means that XS extensions might read from or write to the wrong area of the interpreter variable struct, causing crashes and other strange behavior.

Bug#149013: Add namespace registration mecanism in xmllint --shell.

This feature was added quite some time ago. The debug shell learned the `setns` command in 2004 and the `setrootns` command in 2005. See https://git.gnome.org/browse/libxml2/commit/?id=bbaa997a06eef7198af749649a3aac4fc6cff0c5
