During the review of the vcpkg integration of this library (microsoft/vcpkg#25091) it was noted that the name of this library is very generic and will likely clash with other base64 libraries. This is especially dangerous for names resolved by the linker like the so/archive name and function names. The public header name is also prone to a file name conflict.

Therefore it would be nice if either the library name was changed to something more unique like a proper name or the entities above were prefixed with something unique. Obviously this would be a breaking change and I would understand if this was rejected. OTOH it has been mentioned that 0.6.0 would be the target for breaking changes anyway.
