NcnameCodec (uuid-creator 3.7.0 API)

- com.github.f4b6a3.uuid.codec.name.NcnameCodec

All Implemented Interfaces:

UuidCodec<String>
```
public final class NcnameCodec
extends Object
implements UuidCodec<String>
```
Codec for UUID NCNames. A UUID NCName is a shorter string representation that conforms to the constraints of various other identifiers such as NCName in XML documents. The NcnameCodec turns a UUID into a string that does not start with digits (0-9). But due to the default base-64-url encoding, it may contain '-' and '_'. The Base32Codec can be passed to the NcnameCodec constructor to generate base-32 NCNames. Due to the base-32 alphabet, it is case insensitive and it contains only letters (a-zA-Z) and digits (2-7). This encoding substitution can be done to avoid the characters '-' and '_' of the base-64-url encoding, but it makes the NCName case insensitive. The transformation scheme is outlined in this RFC: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-taylor-uuid-ncname-00 SlugCodec and NcnameCodec are very similar. The difference between the two is the bit shift they do with the original UUID to transform it into a string. See: https://github.com/f4b6a3/uuid-creator/issues/31
