[New-bugs-announce] [issue42065] Fix incorrectly formatted _codecs.charmap_decode error message

[Tal Einat]

New submission from Tal Einat <taleinat+python at gmail.com>:

The error message for _codecs.charmap_decode uses a non-existent formatting placeholder "%lx", when a mapped value is a number outside the range of valid Unicode code points.

This was reported by Max Bernstein (@tekknolagi) on GitHub PR GH-19940.
