SDL_iconv_string3
Helper function to convert a string's encoding in one call.
Usage

char * SDL_iconv_string(const char *tocode, const char *fromcode, const char *inbuf, size_t inbytesleft);
Header file
Defined in SDL3/SDL_stdinc.h
Overview
This function converts a buffer or string between encodings in one pass.
The string does not need to be NULL-terminated; this function operates on the number of bytes specified in inbytesleft whether there is a NULL character anywhere in the buffer.
The returned string is owned by the caller, and should be passed to
SDL_free
when no longer needed.

inbuf

the string to convert to a different encoding. |

Returns a new string, converted to the new encoding, or NULL on error.
