Subject: [PATCH] [3.9] gh-98433: Fix quadratic time idna decoding. (GH-99092)
 (GH-99222) (#99230)

There was an unnecessary quadratic loop in idna decoding. This restores
the behavior to linear.

(cherry picked from commit d315722564927c7202dd6e111dc79eaf14240b0d)
(cherry picked from commit a6f6c3a3d6f2b580f2d87885c9b8a9350ad7bf15)

+The IDNA codec decoder used on DNS hostnames by :mod:`socket` or :mod:`asyncio`
+related name resolution functions no longer involves a quadratic algorithm.
+This prevents a potential CPU denial of service if an out-of-spec excessive
+length hostname involving bidirectional characters were decoded. Some protocols
+such as :mod:`urllib` http ``3xx`` redirects potentially allow for an attacker
+to supply such a name.
