+/**
+ * <pre>====================================================</pre>
+ * Modified by Apache Software Foundation on February 18th, 2013, in the following ways:
+ * <p/>
+ * - Set all methods to "package" level visibility, since this is strictly
+ * meant to be back-end for our non-streaming Base64 implementation.
+ * (Streaming Base64 still uses our original implementation).
+ * <p/>
+ * - Added support for the Apache Commons Codec variations to make all the Commons-Codec
+ * unit tests pass:
+ * <ol>
+ * <li> Ability to alter line-length from default of 76</li>
+ * <li> If we are using line-separators, must always end with a line-separator, no matter
+ * length of final line.</li>
+ * <li> Make '=' and '==' padding optional when decoding.</li>
+ * <li> Make decoding of Base64 with inner padding (e.g., AA==AA==) consistent with Commons-Codec..</li>
+ * <li> Add support for URL-Safe Base64 alphabet (which, incidentally, omits '=' and '==' padding).</li>
+ * </ol>
+ * <p/>
+ * - And thus Apache Commons-Codec is now as fast as MiGBase64, since it uses MiGBase64 under the
+ * hood.  Yay!  (Non-streaming encode speed-up is around 200%).
+ * <p/>
+ * And now, back to your regular scheduled programming:
+ * <pre>====================================================</pre>
+ * <p/>
+ * A very fast and memory efficient class to encode and decode to and from BASE64 in full accordance
+ * with RFC 2045.<br><br>
+ * On Windows XP sp1 with 1.4.2_04 and later ;), this encoder and decoder is about 10 times faster
+ * on small arrays (10 - 1000 bytes) and 2-3 times as fast on larger arrays (10000 - 1000000 bytes)
+ * compared to <code>sun.misc.Encoder()/Decoder()</code>.<br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * On byte arrays the encoder is about 20% faster than Jakarta Commons Codec for encode and
+ * about 50% faster for decoding large arrays. This implementation is about twice as fast on very small
+ * arrays (&lt 30 bytes). If source/destination is a <code>String</code> this
+ * version is about three times as fast due to the fact that the Commons Codec result has to be recoded
+ * to a <code>String</code> from <code>byte[]</code>, which is very expensive.<br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * This encode/decode algorithm doesn't create any temporary arrays as many other codecs do, it only
+ * allocates the resulting array. This produces less garbage and it is possible to handle arrays twice
+ * as large as algorithms that create a temporary array. (E.g. Jakarta Commons Codec). It is unknown
+ * whether Sun's <code>sun.misc.Encoder()/Decoder()</code> produce temporary arrays but since performance
+ * is quite low it probably does.<br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * The encoder produces the same output as the Sun one except that the Sun's encoder appends
+ * a trailing line separator if the last character isn't a pad. Unclear why but it only adds to the
+ * length and is probably a side effect. Both are in conformance with RFC 2045 though.<br>
+ * Commons codec seem to always att a trailing line separator.<br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * <b>Note!</b>
+ * The encode/decode method pairs (types) come in three versions with the <b>exact</b> same algorithm and
+ * thus a lot of code redundancy. This is to not create any temporary arrays for transcoding to/from different
+ * format types. The methods not used can simply be commented out.<br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * <S>There is also a "fast" version of all decode methods that works the same way as the normal ones, but
+ * har a few demands on the decoded input. Normally though, these fast verions should be used if the source if
+ * the input is known and it hasn't bee tampered with.</S> (- removed for ApacheModifiedMiGBase64). <br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * If you find the code useful or you find a bug, please send me a note at base64 @ miginfocom . com.

+ * A very fast and memory efficient class to encode and decode to and from BASE64 in full accordance
+ * with RFC 2045.<br><br>
+ * On Windows XP sp1 with 1.4.2_04 and later ;), this encoder and decoder is about 10 times faster
+ * on small arrays (10 - 1000 bytes) and 2-3 times as fast on larger arrays (10000 - 1000000 bytes)
+ * compared to <code>sun.misc.Encoder()/Decoder()</code>.<br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * On byte arrays the encoder is about 20% faster than Jakarta Commons Codec for encode and
+ * about 50% faster for decoding large arrays. This implementation is about twice as fast on very small
+ * arrays (&lt 30 bytes). If source/destination is a <code>String</code> this
+ * version is about three times as fast due to the fact that the Commons Codec result has to be recoded
+ * to a <code>String</code> from <code>byte[]</code>, which is very expensive.<br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * This encode/decode algorithm doesn't create any temporary arrays as many other codecs do, it only
+ * allocates the resulting array. This produces less garbage and it is possible to handle arrays twice
+ * as large as algorithms that create a temporary array. (E.g. Jakarta Commons Codec). It is unknown
+ * whether Sun's <code>sun.misc.Encoder()/Decoder()</code> produce temporary arrays but since performance
+ * is quite low it probably does.<br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * The encoder produces the same output as the Sun one except that the Sun's encoder appends
+ * a trailing line separator if the last character isn't a pad. Unclear why but it only adds to the
+ * length and is probably a side effect. Both are in conformance with RFC 2045 though.<br>
+ * Commons codec seem to always att a trailing line separator.<br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * <b>Note!</b>
+ * The encode/decode method pairs (types) come in three versions with the <b>exact</b> same algorithm and
+ * thus a lot of code redundancy. This is to not create any temporary arrays for transcoding to/from different
+ * format types. The methods not used can simply be commented out.<br><br>
+ * <p/>
+ * There is also a "fast" version of all decode methods that works the same way as the normal ones, but
+ * har a few demands on the decoded input. Normally though, these fast verions should be used if the source if
+ * the input is known and it hasn't bee tampered with.<br><br>
