### The bug

`rb_enc_interned_str` doesn't properly handle autoloaded encodings that are not yet loaded:

```

```

Other `rb_enc_*` functions go through `enc_check_encoding()`, but because `rb_enc_interned_str` rely on `rb_setup_fake_str`, it bypass this check.

### Occurence

While unlikely, this crash can be caused by C extensions starting in ruby 3.0.0-p0.

However https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/4119 made `RubyVM::InstructionSequence.load_from_binary` rely on `rb_enc_interned_str` and make this error very likely, mostly because `net/http` has a `Windows-31J` regexp (which is likely a bug too, see https://github.com/ruby/net-http/pull/18).

So I believe this fix should be backported to the 3.0 branch.

### Patch

I created a Pull Request with a patch: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/4290
