/**
* String encoder/decoder for SQLite.
*
* This module was kindly donated by Eric van der Maarel of Nedap N.V.
*
* This encoder was implemented based on an original idea from an anonymous
* author in the source code of the SQLite distribution.
* I feel obliged to provide a quote from the original C-source code:
*
* "The author disclaims copyright to this source code. In place of
* a legal notice, here is a blessing:
*
* May you do good and not evil.
* May you find forgiveness for yourself and forgive others.
* May you share freely, never taking more than you give."

/**
* Encodes the given byte array into a string that can be used by
* the SQLite database. The database cannot handle null (0x00) and
* the character '\'' (0x27). The encoding consists of escaping
* these characters with a reserved character (0x01). The escaping
* is applied after determining and applying a shift that minimizes
* the number of escapes required.
* With this encoding the data of original size n is increased to a
* maximum of 1+(n*257)/254.
* For sufficiently large n the overhead is thus less than 1.2%.
*
* @param a the byte array to be encoded. A null reference is handled as
* an empty array.
* @return the encoded bytes as a string. When an empty array is
* provided a string of length 1 is returned, the value of
* which is bogus.
* When decoded with this class' decode
method
* a string of size 1 will return an empty byte array.
