Try

create database a template template0 collation_provider icu locale
'en_US.utf8';

which sets both lc_collate and lc_ctype.  But 'en_US.utf8' is not a
valid ICU locale name.  Perhaps use 'en' or 'en-US'.

I'm making a note that we should prevent creating a database with a
faulty locale configuration in the first place instead of failing when
we're connecting.
