* Convert data from one encoding to another. Return:
28
* -2 : memory allocation failed
29
* -1 : unknown encoding
30
* 0 : data was converted exactly
31
* 1 : data was converted inexactly
32
* 2 : data was invalid (but still converted)
34
* We convert in two steps, via UTF-8, as this is the only
35
* reliable way of distinguishing between invalid input
36
* and valid input which iconv refuses to transliterate.
37
* We convert from UTF-8 twice, because we have no way of
38
* knowing whether the conversion was exact if iconv returns
39
* E2BIG (due to a bug in the specification of iconv).
40
* An alternative approach is to assume that the output of
41
* iconv is never more than 4 times as long as the input,
42
* but I prefer to avoid that assumption if possible.
