Both, as far as possible. My implementation has Emacs name -> IANA
name conversion table. It will also need IANA name -> iconv() name
conversion table (sensible to platform).

Yes, because it uses iconv() internally. In other words, encodings
which are supported by system's iconv() will be the range of supported
encodings. (Well, usage of libiconv will be nice if specified in
compilation time.)
