<para>
This function converts a UTF-8 encoded domain name to ASCII according to the IDNA toUnicode() specification.
If the input has non-ASCII characters, the output will be in the "xn--" ACE notation.

The UTF-8 encoded domain name.

If e.g. an ISO-8859-1 (aka Western Europe latin1) encoded string is
passed it will be converted into an ACE encoded "xn--" string.
It will not be the one you expected though!
