/**
 * RFC4648 and RFC7515 compliant BASE64, BASE64URL, BASE32, BASE32HEX
 * and BASE16 encode/decode functions.
 *
 * The following encodings are supported:
 *
 * - Base 64 Encoding
 *
 *   o Use flag APR_ENCODE_NONE
 *   o https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-4
 *
 * - Base 64 Encoding with URL and Filename Safe Alphabet
 *
 *   o Use flag APR_ENCODE_URL
 *   o https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-5
 *
 * - Base 64 URL Encoding without Padding
 *
 *   o Use flag APR_ENCODE_BASE64URL
 *   o https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7515#appendix-C
 *
 * - Base 32 Encoding
 *
 *   o Use flag APR_ENCODE_NONE
 *   o https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-6
 *
 * - Base 32 Encoding with Extended Hex Alphabet
 *
 *   o Use flag APR_ENCODE_BASE32HEX
 *   o https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-7
 *
 * - Base 16 Encoding
 *
 *   o Use flags APR_ENCODE_NONE/APR_ENCODE_COLON
 *   o https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4648#section-8
 *
 * If a non valid character of any kind including whitespace is passed to any
 * of the decoder functions, APR_BADCH will be returned. In this case decoding
 * will still take place, but the results can not be trusted.
 *
 * If APR_ENCODE_RELAXED is passed to the decoder functions, decoding will be
 * attempted up until the first non valid character. If this results in an
 * invalid state in the decoder, such as but not limited to an odd number of
 * base16 characters, APR_BADCH will still be returned.
 *
 * If APR_ENCODE_RELAXED is not passed to a decoder function, the decoding will
 * be done in constant time regardless of whether the result returns APR_SUCCESS
 * or APR_BADCH.
 *
 * If the dest parameter is NULL, the maximum theoretical buffer size is
 * returned in the len field, including space for a terminating zero character
 * if the destination is a string. This value can be used to allocate buffers
 * of a suitable safe size.
 *
 * If the dest parameter is provided, the encoding or decoding will take place,
 * and the actual number of characters written is returned in the len field,
 * ignoring any terminating zero.
 *
 * Plain strings are not assumed '\0' terminated unless APR_ENCODE_STRING is
 * provided.
