Doing so reduce overheads of calling `charset.newDecoder()`. This reduce or eliminate regressions on `new String(byte[], String)` operations due the removal of thread-local decoder caching in [JDK-8259842](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8259842)

Thanks. The newly added comment to ISO2022 is helpful.
