A simple library for encoding variable-length quantities.

It currently supports writing a base64-encoded integer to a Buffer. Patches implementing other forms of encoding are welcome!

Example

let buf = Buffer.create 10 in
Vlq.Base64.encode buf 123456789;
Buffer.contents buf (* "qxmvrH" *)

let stream = Stream.of_string "qxmvrH" in
Vlq.Base64.decode stream (* 123456789 *)

This encoding can be used to generate JavaScript sourcemaps.
