Qianxin Cheng created an issue: https://gitlab.com/gnutls/gnutls/-/issues/1674



## Description of problem:
       Hello Developer, I have a CRL file where the Country value in the Issuer field is "USA." Normally, ISO 3166-1 specifies two characters to represent a country name. However, GnuTLS successfully printed the Issuer field information of this CRL file without any errors. Therefore, I would like to ask if this is a bug.
## Version of gnutls used:
GnuTLS 3.7.11

## Distributor of gnutls (e.g., Ubuntu, Fedora, RHEL)
Ubuntu

## How reproducible:
certtool --crl-info --inder --infile USA_Country.der

## Actual results:
GnuTLS successfully printed this CRL file.

## Expected results:
         For comparison, when using Python's Cryptography library to print this CRL file, the following error was displayed: error: must be >= 2 and <= 2, but it was 3.
