doc: update maintaining ICU guide

Do not ask to separate the changes in deps/icu-small and in the LICENSE file. Do not ask to remove the whitespace changes. The way commits are landed now doesn't eliminate them anymore.

-  * To simplify review, I often will “pre-land” this patch, meaning that I run
-    `curl -L https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/xxx.patch | git am -3 --whitespace=fix`
-    per the collaborator’s guide… and then push that patched branch into my
-    PR's branch. This reduces the whitespace changes that show up in the PR,
-    since the final land will eliminate those anyway.
