I implemented enforcement based on the rules in RFC 8264 section 7.
The behavioral rules (IdentifierClass) are applied last.

>>> from precis_i18n import get_profile
>>> ic = get_profile('IdentifierClass')
>>> ic.enforce('\u212b')
Traceback (most recent call last):
 ...
UnicodeEncodeError: 'IdentifierClass' codec can't encode character
'\u212b' in position 0: DISALLOWED/has_compat
>>> un = get_profile('UsernameCasePreserved')
>>> un.enforce('\u212b')
'Å'

You're right that the references to preparation in RFC 8265 (sections
3.3.2, 3.4.2) are at odds with RFC 8264 and the mailing list.
