NAME
       stringprep_utf8_nfkc_normalize - API function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <stringprep.h>

       char * stringprep_utf8_nfkc_normalize(const char * str, ssize_t len);

ARGUMENTS
       const char * str
		   a UTF-8 encoded string.

       ssize_t len length of str, in bytes, or -1 if str is nul-terminated.

DESCRIPTION
       Converts  a  string into canonical form, standardizing such issues as whether a character with an accent is represented as a base character
       and combining accent or as a single precomposed character.

       The normalization mode is NFKC (ALL COMPOSE).  It standardizes differences that do not affect the text content, such as the above-mentioned
       accent  representation. It standardizes the "compatibility" characters in Unicode, such as SUPERSCRIPT THREE to the standard forms (in this
       case DIGIT THREE). Formatting information may be lost but for most text operations such	characters  should  be	considered  the  same.	It
       returns a result with composed forms rather than a maximally decomposed form.

RETURN VALUE
       a newly allocated string, that is the NFKC normalized form of str.
