Kernel#sprintf: %c allows codepoints above 127 for 7-bits ASCII encoding

Description

I've noticed the following behavior:

sprintf("%c".encode("US-ASCII"), 128)
=> "\x80"

sprintf("%c".encode("US-ASCII"), 128).valid_encoding?
=> false

Specifying codepoints 128-255 for ASCII encoded formatting sequence leads to a broken string.

sprintf("%c".encode("US-ASCII"), 255)
=> "\xFF"
sprintf("%c".encode("US-ASCII"), 256)
(irb):17:in `sprintf': 256 out of char range (RangeError)

Specifying codepoint greater that 255 causes the expected exception out of char range.

I suppose this exception should be raised for codepoints 128-255 as well (for ASCII encoding).

I noticed https://github.com/ruby/ruby/blob/master/benchmark/app_aobench.rb seems to rely on this behavior.
But that is easily fixed by using # coding: BINARY instead of # coding: US-ASCII.

I think it would be good to fix this issue, so sprintf("%c".encode("US-ASCII"), 128) is out of char range (RangeError), just like it is an exception for:

> 128.chr(Encoding::US_ASCII)
(irb):2:in `chr': invalid codepoint 0x80 in US-ASCII (RangeError)

@nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) Looks good to me, could you commit it?
(ARG_UNUSED is not needed on code I think)

I am concerned about compatibility to change this. @naruse (Yui NARUSE) proposed to return an ASCII-8BIT string instead of raising an exception.

Updated by mame (Yusuke Endoh) about 2 years ago

We brielfly discussed this issue at the dev meeting. @naruse (Yui NARUSE) said it should behave like String#<< as follows. @nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada) said he would try to implement this.

s = "".force_encoding("US-ASCII")
s << 128
p s          #=> "\x80"
p s.encoding #=> #<Encoding:ASCII-8BIT>

s = "".force_encoding("US-ASCII")
s << 256 #=> 256 out of char range (RangeError)
