This function takes a bystring of length 32 and produces an nkey-encoded seed. This function can be used to generate nkeys (with the onus of providing proper entropy left to the user).

hello again :)
This PR provides the inverse of the existing function
decode_seed, a new function namedencode_seedwhich takes a bytestring of length 32 and produces an nkey-encoded seed.This function can be used to generate nkeys, with the onus of providing proper entropy left to the user. I believe this would resolve #3.
I added a low-tech property test, which checks that encoding followed by decoding is just the identity function. I am a big fan of hypothesis, but I was not sure the appetite here for adding new dependencies.
