    iconv: Accept redundant shift sequences in IBM1364 [BZ #26224]
    
    The IBM1364, IBM1371, IBM1388, IBM1390 and IBM1399 character sets
    share converter logic (iconvdata/ibm1364.c) which would reject
    redundant shift sequences when processing input in these character
    sets.  This led to a hang in the iconv program (CVE-2020-27618).
    
    This commit adjusts the converter to ignore redundant shift sequences
    and adds test cases for iconv_prog hangs that would be triggered upon
    their rejection.  This brings the implementation in line with other
    converters that also ignore redundant shift sequences (e.g. IBM930
    etc., fixed in commit 692de4b3960d).
