// iterator which takes elements of x bits and returns elements of y bits.
// used to change streams of 8 bit characters into streams of 6 bit characters.
// and vice-versa for implementing base64 encodeing/decoding. Be very careful
// when using and end iterator.  end is only reliable detected when the input
// stream length is some common multiple of x and y.  E.G. Base64 6 bit
// character and 8 bit bytes. Lowest common multiple is 24 => 4 6 bit characters
// or 3 8 bit characters
