 On some occasions e.g. license checking, the manufacturer string in the
 SMBIOS settings edit has to allow characters such as whitespaces.

 In principle SMBIOS allows to pass any zero terminated string to the
 corresponding fields in the structure type 1 (System Information).

 By base64 encoding the values clashing of the config is avoided, backwards
 compatibility is maintained.
