As a side note: If any of the system/* patches cause issues, feel free to switch
to the vendored copies. Vendoring in general is frowned upon since it requires that
a fix in a libraries spreads out to all vendored copies, but for Chromium there's
a steady stream of Chromium-internal security issues anyway, so for all
practical purposes it doesn't make a difference if the Chromium security releases
also include a fix for a vendored lib like ICU.
