Implements the the
[Bubble Babble binary data encoding](/spec/Bubble_Babble_Encoding.txt).

> The Bubble Babble Encoding encodes arbitrary binary data into pseudowords that
> are more natural to humans and that can be pronounced relatively easily.

Bubble Babble encodes 6 characters in 16 bits and includes a checksum embedded
in the encoded data. See the
[Bubble Babble spec](spec/Bubble_Babble_Encoding.txt).

This crate depends on [`bstr`].

## Usage

Add this to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
[dependencies]
boba = "4"
```

Then encode and decode data like:

```rust
assert_eq!(boba::encode("Pineapple"), "xigak-nyryk-humil-bosek-sonax");
assert_eq!(boba::decode(b"xexax"), Ok(vec![]));
```

## Crate Features

Boba is `no_std` compatible with a required dependency on the [`alloc`] crate.

Boba has several Cargo features, all of which are enabled by default:

- **std** - Adds a dependency on [`std`], the Rust Standard Library. This
  feature enables [`std::error::Error`] implementations on error types in this
  crate. Enabling the **std** feature also enables the **alloc** feature.
- **alloc** - Adds a dependency on [`alloc`], the Rust allocation and
  collections library. Currently, Boba requires this feature to build, but may
  relax this requirement in the future.

`boba` is [fuzzed](fuzz/fuzz_targets) with [cargo-fuzz].

## Minimum Rust Version Policy
