Problem description
In commit Use UCS16LE instead of UCS-2LE UCS2LE was swapped for UTF16LE. This change works fine if libunistring is using the GLIBC iconv_* symbols. However, if libunistring is linked to libiconv instead, the change breaks this library.
In the libiconv manual there is no explicit mention to aliases without dashes being supported, and testing revealed that it in fact does not. https://www.gnu.org/software/libiconv/
Solution
Replace "UTF16LE" with "UTF-16LE" in libunistring calls
Test
