Please review updates to the formatting and parsing API based on the 
last round of comments.
There are many changes, so it may be useful to read it as a fresh draft.

  - Rename classes: Encoder -> Formatter; Decoder -> Parser
  - Rename methods: encode -> format; decode -> parse, etc.
  - Rename factory methods to match
  - Added a factory method and re-arrange arguments to make it more 
convenient
    to create uppercase formatters based on the existing uses.
  - The implementation has been updated based on the suggestions and API 
changes

The webrev for applying the API to the security classes will be updated 
when the API settles down.
