Description
While this crate helps serialize bytes in binary formats efficiently, human-readable formats will still have them as vectors of integers. Is efficient serialization in human-readable formats something potentially fitting for this crate, or should it be implemented elsewhere?
That may include:
- support for hex/base64 encoding
- multibase support
- selection of the specific representation for the encoding (e.g. prefix or no prefix, or lowercase or uppercase for hex)

Research direction
Start by reviewing the crate's current binary serialization behavior and the issue's proposed human-readable representations: hex/base64, multibase, and configurable prefixes or case. No files or tests are named, and the intended ownership and scope need to be decided before implementation; done is not defined by the issue.
