What is it missing to have a backwards compatible libidn which
supports IDNA2008? As far as I understand idna_to_ascii_8z() can be
mapped to libunistring + idn2_lookup_u8 from libidn2. The
idna_to_ascii_4z/lz are also about combining libunistring with the
previous function. The idna_to_unicode_* do they require any mapping
at all? As far as I understand rfc3492 should apply on IDNA2008
encodings as well, and the reverse process should be identical, right?

Nikos
