 * encodings.
 *
 * In addition, IBM CCSIDs and Unicode conversion tables are not 1:1 related.
 * For many IBM CCSIDs there are multiple (up to six) Unicode conversion tables, and
 * for some Unicode conversion tables there are multiple CCSIDs.
 * Some "alternate" Unicode conversion tables are provided by the
 * IBM CDRA conversion table registry.
 * The most prominent example of a systematic modification of conversion tables that is
 * not provided in the form of conversion table files in the repository is
 * that S/390 Unix System Services swaps the codes for Line Feed and New Line in all
 * EBCDIC codepages, which requires such a swap in the Unicode conversion tables as well.
 *
 * Only IBM default conversion tables are accessible with ucnv_openCCSID().
 * ucnv_getCCSID() will return the same CCSID for all conversion tables that are associated
 * with that CCSID.
 *
 * Currently, the only "platform" supported in the ICU converter API is UCNV_IBM.

 *     char name[20];
 *     sprintf(name, "ibm-%hu-s390", ccsid);
 *     cnv=ucnv_open(name, &errorCode);

 *
 * In order to open a converter from a Microsoft codepage number, use the prefix "cp":

 *     cnv=ucnv_open(name, &errorCode);
