keywords: switch 'xattr' to base64 

Rather than an arbitrary election of hashing the xattr value with SHA1
to avoid leaking the value. By going with base64 encoding it allows for
the possibility of restoring a directory with the values stored in the
manifest.

Since extended attributes are an unordered hashmap, this approach allows for
checking each `<namespace>.<key>` individually.
The value is the [SHA1 digest][sha1] of the value of the particular extended
attribute. Since the values themselves could be raw bytes, this approach both
avoids issues with encoding, as well as issues of information leaking. The
designation of SHA1 is arbitrary and seen as a general "good enough" assertion
of the value.
The value is the [base64 encoded][base64] of the value of the particular
