Research direction
Start in src/newlyAvailable/ and compare the requested helper patterns with the tests in tests/newlyAvailable/. Then wire the transformer through src/newlyAvailable.js and document compatibility caveats in README.md. Done means clearly equivalent patterns transform, non-equivalent ones remain unchanged, and the tests pass.

Description
Summary
Add a transformer for byte conversion helper code to modern Uint8Array base64/hex APIs.
Examples
// before
const bytes = Uint8Array.from(atob(base64), (char) => char.charCodeAt(0));
// after
const bytes = Uint8Array.fromBase64(base64);
// before
const base64 = btoa(String.fromCharCode(...bytes));
// after
const base64 = bytes.toBase64();
// before
const bytes = parseHex(hexString); // custom helper
// after
const bytes = Uint8Array.fromHex(hexString);
Scope
- Baseline category: newly available.
- Only transform clearly equivalent helper patterns.
