There is case_la() for Latin alphabet, not case_ru().  See please on top
once more.
Your  "heLLo" is in Latin alphabet.
I think, you can make case_gr() for German alphabet, someone - case_fr()
for France,
and so on.  case_ru() is Russian Cyrillic.
There are no any  "dos","win","koi","iso","mac"  for pure Latin.
Pure Latin  is just ASCII,  A..Z,  a..z.
 Do you see now?
