//! This crate provides an implementation of Base64 encoding/decoding that is
//! designed to be resistant against software side-channel attacks (such as
//! timing & cache attacks), see below for details. On certain platforms it
//! also uses SIMD making it very fast. This makes it suitable for e.g.
//! decoding cryptographic private keys in PEM format.
//!
//! The API is very similar to the base64 implementation in the old
//! rustc-serialize crate, making it easy to use in existing projects.
//!
//! # Resistance against Software Side-Channel Attacks
//!
//! An indistinguishable-time (colloquially: constant-time) implementation of
//! an algorithm has a runtime that's independent of the data being processed.
//! This indistinguishability is usually based on the control flow of the
//! program as well as its memory access pattern. In that case,
//! indistinguishability may be achieved by making sure the control flow and
//! memory access pattern don't depend on the data. Other factors, such as
//! instruction cycle count may also be consequential.
//!
//! See the [BearSSL page on constant-time cryptography] for more information.
//!
//! The runtime of the implementations in this crate is intended to be
//! dependent only on whitespace and the length of the valid data, not the data
//! itself.
//!
//! [BearSSL page on constant-time cryptography]: https://bearssl.org/constanttime.html
//!
//! # Implementation
//!
//! Depending on the runtime CPU architecture, this crate uses different
//! implementations with different security properties.
//!
//! * x86 with AVX2: All lookup tables are implemented with SIMD
//!   instructions. No secret-dependent memory accceses.
//! * Other platforms: Lookups are limited to 64-byte aligned lookup tables. On
//!   platforms with 64-byte cache lines this may be sufficient to prevent
//!   certain cache side-channel attacks. However, it's known that this is [not
//!   sufficient for all platforms].
