runtime: dotnet-sdk-2.1 package for OpenSUSE is broken

From @pavelbraginskiy on July 26, 2018 2:31

I don’t know if this is the correct repo for this issue, but I can’t think of a better place.

Steps to reproduce

Attempt to install .NET Core on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed following the instructions at https://www.microsoft.com/net/learn/get-started-with-dotnet-tutorial

Expected behavior

$ sudo zypper install dotnet-sdk-2.1
[sudo] password for root: 
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
Resolving package dependencies...

The following 6 NEW packages are going to be installed:
  aspnetcore-runtime-2.1 dotnet-host dotnet-hostfxr-2.1 dotnet-runtime-2.1 dotnet-runtime-deps-2.1 dotnet-sdk-2.1

6 new packages to install.
Overall download size: 163.1 MiB. Already cached: 0 B. After the operation, additional 163.1 MiB will be used.
Continue? [y/n/...? shows all options] (y):

Actual behavior

$ sudo zypper install dotnet-sdk-2.1
[sudo] password for root:

Problem: nothing provides libicu52_1 needed by dotnet-runtime-deps-2.1-2.1.2-1.x86_64
 Solution 1: do not install dotnet-sdk-2.1-2.1.302-1.x86_64
 Solution 2: break dotnet-runtime-deps-2.1-2.1.2-1.x86_64 by ignoring some of its dependencies
