Libidn is the usual candidate: https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fgitlab.com%2Flibidn%2Flibidn2&data=02%7C01%7Cmarksv%40microsoft.com%7C6324a67fe8b34cbeea3d08d5644dd318%7Cee3303d7fb734b0c8589bcd847f1c277%7C1%7C0%7C636525207796320457&sdata=7ETg07Q0ZMQDSIIdtYoWhg%2Bzl5g98Z75cIQFQ2HFit0%3D&reserved=0.
Note that it is a combination of GPL v2 and GPL v3, so it may not work for your purposes.
