TextBreakIterator should use typedefs in a common header instead of reinterpret_cast

The ICU code has lots of:
UBreakIterator* ubrkIter = reinterpret_cast<UBreakIterator*>(iterator);

TextBreakIterator is just forward declared and never defined.  This is different from how say PlatformGraphicsContext or the other graphics types work where they have a set of #ifdef lines which typedef from the appropriate platform pointer type to the shared type.

This was found as part of reviewing bug 89235.
