Hi,
Doc patch, against master. Documents encode() and decode() base64
format.
Builds for me.
Attached: doc_base64_v1.patch
References RFC2045 section 6.8 to define base64.
Because encode() and decode() show up in both the string
functions section and the binary string functions section
I documented in only the string functions section and hyperlinked
"base64" in both sections to the new text.
Note that XML output can also generate base64 data. I suspect
this is done via the (different, src/common/base64.c)
pg_b64_encode() function which does not limit line length.
In any case this patch does not touch the XML documentation.
