* Convert binary data to and from UrlBase64 encoding. This is identical to

* non-alphanumeric characters are "-" and "_" instead of "+" and "/".
*
* The purpose of UrlBase64 encoding is to provide a compact encoding of binary
* data that is safe for use as an URL parameter. Base64 encoding does not
* produce encoded values that are safe for use in URLs, since "/" can be
* interpreted as a path delimiter; "+" is the encoded form of a space; and
* "=" is used to separate a name from the corresponding value in an URL
* parameter.
