Base85

Implements some base-85 character encodings.

Supported character sets include:

• ZeroMQ's Z85
• Safe85 (character set only, not padding)
• PostgreSQL-safe

Supported padding methods include:

• None
• PKCS7-style

Note that this currently does not implement padding used for full support of Safe85 or Safe85L.

The PostgreSQL-safe character set eliminates characters used in SQL comments, statement termination, quoting, and placeholders.

Unsupported character sets include:

• Adobe ASCII85
• btoa
• ZModem Pack-7
