Upgrade Guide

1.0.3 -> 1.0.4

codecBase32 has been re-enabled with changes to conform to RFC 4648:

• Padding with = is now applied to the output of fromBits. If you don't want that padding, you can disable it by calling fromBits with a second parameter of true or anything that evaluates as "truthy" in JS
• The encoding alphabet for sjcl.codec.base32 now matches that specified by the RFC, rather than the extended hex alphabet.
• The former extended hex alphabet is now available through sjcl.codec.base32hex (also matching the RFC). So if you encoded something with base32 before, you'll want to decode it with base32hex now.
