Comment (by karsten):

 I think the only class we're using from that library is
 `javax.xml.bind.DatatypeConverter`, and the reason why we're using that
 is:

     Remove commons-codec dependency.

     Turns out that Java already comes with default implementations of
     SHA-1, SHA-256, and Base64 that we can use.
 }}}

 It was simply convenient that this class existed in Java SE. But before we
 add a new dependency, maybe we should simply switch back to Apache Commons
 Codec.
