Detailed Description

Base64 encoding/decoding of arbitrary binary data (standard alphabet, '=' padding).

Byte-order independent: Base64 operates on byte streams, so no endianness concerns arise. The functions live in the global namespace (third-party origin, adapted for CMSDK); the unit test is in cmlabs.
