contentAsBytes method

List<int> contentAsBytes()

The content part of the data URI as bytes.

If the data is Base64 encoded, it will be decoded to bytes.

If the data is not Base64 encoded, it will be decoded by unescaping percent-escaped characters and returning byte values of each unescaped character. The bytes will not be, e.g., UTF-8 decoded.
