my version of @dis.sociat.ing's dollcode algorithm in python
convert any text -> dollcode!
- switched from int-only to string-based input
- removed relevant validation, no longer necessary
- added base256 encoding (encode_256), input now passes thru this first
- renamed various functions (print_dollcode -> print_dcode, convert_number ->
encode_dcode)
- edited pyproject.toml to reflect new changes & bumped semver accordingly
