/**
 * Encodes the given value into an unpadded URL-safe Base64 string.
 *
 * **When to use**
 *
 * Use to encode text or bytes in contexts that require the URL-safe alphabet.
 *
 * **Details**
 *
 * String inputs are encoded as UTF-8 bytes before Base64Url encoding.
 * `Uint8Array` inputs are encoded directly. The output removes `=` padding
 * and replaces `+` with `-` and `/` with `_`.
 *
 * **Example** (Encoding URL-safe Base64)
 *
 * ```ts import.meta.vitest
 * import { Base64Url } from "effect/encoding"
 *
 * Base64Url.encode("hello?") // => "aGVsbG8_"
 *
 * const bytes = new Uint8Array([72, 101, 108, 108, 111, 63])
 * Base64Url.encode(bytes) // => "SGVsbG8_"
 * ```
 *
 * @see {@link decode} for decoding URL-safe Base64 to bytes
 * @see {@link decodeString} for decoding URL-safe Base64 to UTF-8 text
