//! `base64-ng` is a `no_std`-first Base64 encoder and decoder.
//!
//! This initial release provides strict scalar RFC 4648-style behavior and
//! caller-owned output buffers. Future SIMD fast paths, including AVX, NEON,
//! and wasm `simd128` candidates, will be required to match this scalar module
//! byte-for-byte.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Encode and decode with caller-owned buffers:
//!
//! ```
//! use base64_ng::{STANDARD, checked_encoded_len};
//!
//! let input = b"hello";
//! const ENCODED_CAPACITY: usize = match checked_encoded_len(5, true) {
//!     Some(len) => len,
//!     None => panic!("encoded length overflow"),
//! };
//! let mut encoded = [0u8; ENCODED_CAPACITY];
//! let encoded_len = STANDARD.encode_slice(input, &mut encoded).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(&encoded[..encoded_len], b"aGVsbG8=");
//!
//! let mut decoded = [0u8; 5];
//! let decoded_len = STANDARD.decode_slice(&encoded, &mut decoded).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(&decoded[..decoded_len], input);
//! ```
//!
//! Use the URL-safe no-padding engine:
//!
//! ```
//! use base64_ng::URL_SAFE_NO_PAD;
//!
//! let mut encoded = [0u8; 3];
//! let encoded_len = URL_SAFE_NO_PAD.encode_slice(b"\xfb\xff", &mut encoded).unwrap();
//! assert_eq!(&encoded[..encoded_len], b"-_8");
//! ```
//!
//! # Sensitive Decode Policy
//!
//! The default engines such as [`STANDARD`] and [`URL_SAFE_NO_PAD`] are strict
//! scalar encoders/decoders with localized diagnostics. They are not
//! constant-time token validators or key-material decoders: strict decode and
//! validation may branch or return early based on malformed input, and strict
//! [`DecodeError`] values can include input-derived bytes and indexes. Do not
//! log strict decode errors verbatim for secret-bearing input; log
//! [`DecodeError::kind`] instead. Use [`ct::STANDARD`],
//! [`crate::ct::URL_SAFE_NO_PAD`], or [`Engine::ct_decoder`] for secret-bearing
//! payloads where decode timing posture matters more than exact error indexes.
//!
//! Recommended heap-owning pattern for secret-bearing standard Base64:
//!
//! ```
//! # #[cfg(feature = "alloc")]
//! # {
//! use base64_ng::ct;
//!
//! let expected = b"session-key";
//! let decoded = ct::STANDARD.decode_secret(b"c2Vzc2lvbi1rZXk=").unwrap();
//!
//! assert!(decoded.constant_time_eq_public_len(expected));
//! # }
//! ```
//!
//! For shared-memory, enclave-adjacent, HSM-style, or multi-principal
//! deployments where even transient writes into caller-owned output are
//! unacceptable, use [`ct::CtEngine::decode_slice_staged_clear_tail`] with a
//! private staging buffer.
//!
//! # Zeroization Caveat
//!
//! Cleanup APIs and redacted buffers use dependency-free best-effort wiping:
//! byte-wise volatile zero writes followed by an architecture-gated inline
//! assembly barrier plus a hardware store-ordering fence where stable Rust
//! supports it, and a compiler fence on all targets. This resists common
//! compiler dead-store elimination and orders the issued zero stores on native
//! supported architectures, but it is not a formal zeroization guarantee and
//! cannot clear historical copies, registers, cache lines, write buffers, swap,
//! hibernation images, core dumps, cold-boot remanence, or OS-level memory
//! snapshots.
//! High-assurance applications should apply their own approved zeroization
//! policy to caller-owned buffers at the protocol boundary. Architectures
//! without a native wipe barrier fail closed by default unless
//! `allow-compiler-fence-only-wipe` is enabled after platform review. On
//! `wasm32`, the wipe barrier is compiler-fence-only and cannot constrain
//! downstream wasm runtime JITs. For that reason, `wasm32` builds fail closed
//! by default. Enable `allow-wasm32-best-effort-wipe` only when the deployment
//! explicitly accepts compiler-fence-only cleanup and applies its own memory
//! strategy.
