Description

[`base32-encode`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/base32-encode) and [`base32-decode`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/base32-decode) would make it easy to add thorough `base32` support. Would you be open to accept a PR that adds this support?

Note: I am thinking of `base32` (RFC4648), `base32h` (RFC4648-hex), `base32c` (Crockford), `base32p` (RFC4648 padded), `base32hp` (RFC4648hex-padded).

Research direction

Start by inspecting the repository's existing codec API and the two linked npm packages, base32-encode and base32-decode. Done means adding support for base32, base32h, base32c, base32p, and base32hp with behavior matching the requested encodings.
