Note that there already was a `test/jdk/java/net/Socket/IDNTest.java` test but looking what that test does, the history of that test and the location of that test in `java/net/Socket` directory made me believe that it's not meant for testing the `java.net.IDN` class. That's why I created this new test class in `test/jdk/java/net/` directory.
