Crypto (#19): add the OS cryptographically-secure random surface (random_bytes/random_hex/random_u32, reading /dev/urandom) and a standard base64 encoder, completing the library alongside the existing SHA-256/ HMAC-SHA256/verify_hmac/hex/ct_equal. All pure integer IR, C-free. Uuid (#16): a new namespace for stable, collision-free IDs — v4 (random) and v7 (time-ordered) generation, plus parse/is_valid/to_text/equals/nil. UUIDs are canonical lowercase 36-char strings; v4 and v7's random tail draw from the crypto CSPRNG, so both carry the documented determinism caveat (mint at the edges, never inside lockstep simulation). Reuses the crypto prelude's fn_secure_bytes / fn_hex_encode. - examples/library/{crypto,uuid}.ludic: known-answer vectors (SHA-256, HMAC, base64 per RFC 4231/4648) and structural invariants (uuid version/variant bits, parse/equals), wired into `x test` (now 51 passed). - docs: per-symbol pages for every new method + a new Uuid section; inventory and impl-vs-docs coverage check pass. - seed regenerated; `x bootstrap-cfree` fixpoint holds.

Encodes the bytes of <code>s</code> as standard base64 (RFC 4648, the <code>A–Z a–z 0–9 + /</code> alphabet with <code>=</code> padding). Base64 turns arbitrary bytes into printable ASCII, which is what you want when a digest, key, or binary blob has to travel through a text-only channel — a JSON field, a URL-safe token wrapper, a config file, a log line. It is an *encoding*, not encryption: it hides nothing and adds no integrity. Pair it with <a href="crypto-hmac_sha256"><code>Crypto.hmac_sha256</code></a> when the payload must also be tamper-evident.
|
||
|
||
The output length is always a multiple of four; a one- or two-byte remainder in the input is padded with <code>=</code>.
|
||
|
||
Parameters:
|
||
- `s` — the string whose bytes are encoded

```ludic
|
||
program Encode {
|
||
entry {
|
||
print(Crypto.base64("foobar")) # Zm9vYmFy
|
||
print(Crypto.base64("f")) # Zg==
|
||
}
|
||
}
|

```
