A base64 encoder/decoder with `gzip` or `deflate` abilities.

```js

import { encode, decode, stream } from 'buffer-to-base64';

// return a base64 string after compression

const packed = await encode(buffer);

// return an ArrayBuffer after decompression

const original = await decode(packed);

// initialize a WebAssembly module streaming

const response = stream(packed, { type: 'application/wasm' });

// eventually returns the ArrayBuffer too (fast decoding)

const arrayBuffer = await (await response).arrayBuffer();

// `arrayBuffer` is the same as `original`

```

This module goal is to simplify the embedding of *WASM* or other blobs within code as `base64` that can return the original array without bloating space on the file.
