Description

**Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.**
There is a feature in CyberChef to generate QR codes. I would appreciate if there was a feature to generate also other such codes, bar codes in this case.

**Describe the solution you'd like**
There is a javascript library to perform the task not needing any additional libraries - [JsBarcode](https://lindell.me/JsBarcode/). I am unaware though how to implement it not being aware of the CyberChef background.

**Describe alternatives you've considered**
N/A

**Additional context**

Research direction

Start by reading CyberChef's existing QR-code feature and the JsBarcode documentation to understand how barcode generation should fit into the application. A complete change should add barcode generation using JsBarcode and make the resulting feature available through CyberChef's interface.
