Bug ID: 43799
Summary: Bundle or generate on-demand first-letters-XX.ser
files to allow for using language-specific collations
for category sorting

We should either bundle or generate on-demand first-letters-XX.ser files.
ICUCollation itself, as well as PHP's collation, accepts language strings like
'sv' or 'pl' just fine. However, lack of corresponding first-letters file
causes a cryptic exception.
If the 'root' file is copied, sorting works correctly for given language, only
the headings are incorrect (default, not taking letters with diacritics like Ø
or Ą into account).
The files can probably depends on Unicode tailoring data to add additional
letters to create subheading for in categories.
http://developer.mimer.com/charts/tailorings.htm looks like a good starting
point.
