bug#46838: 28.0.50; nonstandard constant value in puny.el sometimes problematic

[J.P.]

Severity: minor
Tags: patch

In rare cases, puny.el appears to convert domains incorrectly (both
human to puny and vice versa). The updated tests in the attached patch
demonstrate one such case. This may just be a typo because changing
`puny-skew' to the value prescribed by RFC3492 [1] makes the issue go
away. Converted names then match those returned by libidn and dig.

Thanks,
J.P.
