    PIM: accent-insensitive and transliterated search (FDO #56524)

    Accent-insensitive search ignores accents, using the same code as in
    EDS.  Transliterated search ignores foreign scripts by transliterating
    search term and contact properties to Latin first. That one is using
    ICU directly in the same way as EDS, but doesn't use the EDS
    ETransliterator class to avoid extra string copying.

    This commit changes the default behavior such that searching is by
    default most permissive (case- and accent-insensitive, does
    transliteration).  Flags exist to restore more restrictive matching.
