The maximum major version of ICU library that we start scanning at was set to 70
(50 as the minimum supported version + 20) long time ago. The available version
of ICU is approaching that limit (it is at 67 now).
This change bumps the max scanned version to 80 to give us enough head space
for a couple of years (guessing based on the current release rate)

@janvorli thanks for updating that. As you are touching the shim, would it make sense to get rid of the block of the condition

if (OpenICULibraries(MinICUVersion, -1, -1, versionPrefix, symbolName, symbolVersion))

trying to load the min version first seems wrong to me.

Right, that is a remainder from the times when the minimum version was the version of ICU at the build time.
