This PR implements a
Word<const WORD_LENGTH: usize>wrapper struct around[u8; WORD_LENGTH]that provides base64 display functionality, as suggested in the original discussion.Changes
New Word Struct
Word<const WORD_LENGTH: usize>([u8; WORD_LENGTH])wrapper structDisplaytrait that shows base64 encoding of the wrapped byte arrayConversion Traits
To ensure seamless integration with existing code, the following traits are implemented:
From<[u8; WORD_LENGTH]>andFrom<Word<WORD_LENGTH>>for easy conversionAsRef<[u8; WORD_LENGTH]>andAsRef<[u8]>for reference accessDerefto[u8; WORD_LENGTH]for transparent usageUsage Example
