Support for XER

[ERnsTL]

• in addition to the binary formats, support for the text-based XML rules and JSON encoding rules would be great in order to use this library for web apps
• true power of ASN1 is the many rulesets -> add XER and JER?

Is this planned?

Thank you for your issue! Yes, I would definitely like to support this, first I need to complete my PER implementation, and then I intend to focus on adding text based encoding rules like JER and XER.

@XAMPPRocky Thanks for your positive response - you took the words out of my mouth, was to ask about JER as well.

That is a great outlook! JER and XER can be great bridges between more conservative ASN1 systems using binary ASN1 rulesets and "hip" JSON-based apps / APIs and web apps / frontends.

Cool, and have a great day!

JER is now implemented so only XER is left.

This is some of the best news in recent days! Thanks for your efforts

I didn't implement it, it was a contribution from the community but I'll accept it regardless 😄
