str<->bytes codecs adding bytes

[tomatopeel]

(nonce/random-nonce 8)
=> [0, 0, 1, 88, 4, -48, 62, -60]

(-> (nonce/random-nonce 8)
    (codecs/bytes->str)
    (codecs/str->bytes))
=> [0, 0, 1, 88, 4, -17, -65, -67, -17, -65, -67, -17, -65, -67]

This can't be right can it?

The wrong stuff is using bytes->str function here. That function interprets the bytes in utf8 but random-nonce return random data, not utf8 encoded text.

Aha, so random-nonce's bytes should never be bytes->str'd, I see. Sorry, thanks for your time, great work on this wonderful library!
