Description
The behavior of decoding the code point `U+FFFE` in the middle of the buffer has been corrected for `StandardCharsets.UTF_16[LE/BE]`. The decoders have been reporting the code point as "malformed". They now pass through the code point in order to conform to the [Unicode Consortium's Corrigendum#9](http://www.unicode.org/versions/corrigendum9.html).
