Buffer and encoding utilities: base64, base64url, hex, byte operations

Why use this module?

The buffer module lets you:

• Create a base64 buffer from a string
• Convert a base64 buffer to string
• Create base64 from hex string
• Convert base64 to hex string
• Encode string to base64

All functions are callable directly from RobinPath scripts with a simple, consistent API.
