You'll find two patches attached.
First one contains requested changes and, hoppefully, a valid Changelog

0001-Add-support-for-base64url-variant-with-parameters.patch
Description: with parameters

The second patch contains an reworked version wich instead of adding
many parameters to base64-encode-region (resp. base64-encode-string)
function create the base64url-encode-region
(resp. base64url-encode-string) function. Documentation and tests are
also updated consequently.

0001-Add-support-for-base64url-variant-with-new-functions.patch
