<para>
Converts a raw binary string into a base64-encoded string. Unlike <function>base64_encode</function>,
<function>sodium_bin2base64</function> is constant-time (a property that is important for any code that
touches cryptographic inputs, such as plaintexts or keys) and supports multiple character sets.
