46  * base64 algorithm, and returns a pointer to the result.  If the "srclen"
47  * parameter is not zero, it specifies the length of the source data.  If it
48  * is zero, the source data is assumed to be null-terminated, and PL_strlen
49  * is used to determine the source length.  If the "dest" parameter is not
50  * null, it is assumed to point to a buffer of sufficient size (which may be
51  * calculated: ((srclen + 2)/3)*4) into which the encoded data is placed
52  * (without any termination).  If the "dest" parameter is null, a buffer is
53  * allocated from the heap to hold the encoded data, and the result *will*
54  * be terminated with an extra null character.  It is the caller's
55  * responsibility to free the result when it is allocated.  A null is returned
56  * if the allocation fails.
