/**
* <p>
* Codec for the Quoted-Printable section of <a href="http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1521.txt">RFC 1521 </a>.
* </p>
* <p>
* The Quoted-Printable encoding is intended to represent data that largely consists of octets that correspond to
* printable characters in the ASCII character set. It encodes the data in such a way that the resulting octets are
* unlikely to be modified by mail transport. If the data being encoded are mostly ASCII text, the encoded form of the
* data remains largely recognizable by humans. A body which is entirely ASCII may also be encoded in Quoted-Printable
* to ensure the integrity of the data should the message pass through a character- translating, and/or line-wrapping
* gateway.
* </p>
*
* <p>
* Note:
* </p>
* <p>
* Rules #3, #4, and #5 of the quoted-printable spec are not implemented yet because the complete quoted-printable spec
* does not lend itself well into the byte[] oriented codec framework. Complete the codec once the steamable codec
* framework is ready. The motivation behind providing the codec in a partial form is that it can already come in handy
* for those applications that do not require quoted-printable line formatting (rules #3, #4, #5), for instance Q codec.
* </p>
