This, BTW, is of course meant to happen as part of a one-time migration in
your application data so that it lines up, as noted on the
eduPersonTargetedID page in the wiki explaining the mess we accidentally
created.

Basically, you take any scoped values you might have stored, chop the
domain, turn the value into whatever serialization you choose to use in
the regular rules (e.g. value!IdP!SP or whatever) and then you're ready to
turn off the original targeted-id support and use the newer Decoder in its
place. That will handle any IdPs that send you the broken form and hide
that from the application.
