    math/big: provide support for conversion bases up to 62 · 51cfe684
    griesemer authored
    Increase MaxBase from 36 to 62 and extend the conversion
    alphabet with the upper-case letters 'A' to 'Z'. For int
    conversions with bases <= 36, the letters 'A' to 'Z' have
    the same values (10 to 35) as the corresponding lower-case
    letters. For conversion bases > 36 up to 62, the upper-case
    letters have the values 36 to 61.
    
    Added MaxBase to api/except.txt: Clients should not make
    assumptions about the value of MaxBase being constant.
    
    The core of the change is in natconv.go. The remaining
    changes are adjusted tests and documentation.
    
    Fixes #21558.
