package/qprint: new package

qprint is a small utility that handles encoding and decoding arbitrary
binary data in the Quoted-Printable format, which was introduced along
MIME.

As stated in the package description, although MUAs nowadays usually
take care of doing this encoding themselves, there are some use cases
where doing it manually is needed, and providing a command-line program
to do it is amenable to shell scripts.

+       help
+         qprint is a program that encodes and decodes binary data in
+         the Quoted-Printable encoding, defined as a part of the MIME
+         specification in RFC 1521. This encoding allows for efficient
+         transfer of mostly ASCII data over transports that are only
+         7-bit clean, like SMTP without 8BITMIME or BINARYMIME
+         extensions. It also allows the transfer of long lines of text
+         by wrapping them every 76 characters.
+
+         Usually, a sophisticated MUA will take care of automatically
+         choosing the best encodings for an e-mail. Nevertheless, this
+         utility may be useful when a MTA (e.g. msmtp) is used without
+         a MUA, or if using this encoding for other purposes is
+         desired.
