Added a branch 'coverage' based on branch 'libunistring'.

It contains a make target 'check-coverage' which runs the test suite with 
collection coverage stats and generating HTML output in directory 'lcov'.

It adds a NFC quick check to avoid unneeded normalizations (explained in 
http://unicode.org/reports/tr15/#Detecting_Normalization_Forms).

I also added a few tests to cover more code paths than before, raising 
coverage to:
  lines......: 88.8% (656 of 739 lines)
  functions..: 95.1% (39 of 41 functions)

That was the low hanging fruits, covering more code paths is beyond my time.
You could remove the case_flags from punycode_encode() - not used in libidn2.

Interestingly, ltr_ends_ok() in bidi.c is never called. That means 
ltr_lenescsetonbnnsm_ok() always returns false. Not sure what is going on 
here. Maybe just missing test cases - they added more cases for Unicode > 
6.3.0.
