fix(encoding): Fix malfunctioning encoding option

[mitsuki31]

Overview

This pull request addresses an issue with the encoding option in the ls function, where it was previously malfunctioning and limited to certain encodings such as 'utf8', 'binary', and 'ascii'. The issue caused errors when using other encodings such as 'hex'. The problem has been resolved, and the encoding option now works as expected, allowing for more flexibility and robustness in encoding file paths.

Details

APIs Enhancements

• Resolved the malfunctioning of the encoding option in the ls function, which previously only supported a limited set of encodings.
• The issue stemmed from internal errors when using encodings such as 'base64', leading to invalid path errors.
• The problem has been fixed by improving the resolution logic of the encoding option and implementing the encodeTo internal function to handle encoding and decoding of file paths.
• The encoding option now supports a wider range of encodings and works as expected, providing users with more flexibility in encoding file paths.

Let's assume you have a tree directory like this:

.
├── foo.js
├── README.md
└── LICENSE.txt

And you have this code inside the foo.js file to list the directory with 'base64' encoding:

// foo.js
const { ls } = require('lsfnd');
// Or ESM:  import { ls } from 'lsfnd';

ls('.', { encoding: 'base64' }).then((res) => console.log(res));

Before this change, you might see an error like this:

Uncaught Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, stat ...

But, after this change now you can see the expected result:

[ 'TElDRU5TRS50eHQ=', 'UkVBRE1FLm1k', 'Zm9vLmpz' ]

Test Environments

• Added new test cases to thoroughly test the encoding option in various scenarios, ensuring its functionality and reliability.

Summary

This pull request resolves an issue with the encoding option in the ls function, improving its functionality and reliability. With these changes, users can now specify a wider range of encodings, allowing for more flexibility in handling file paths.
