// suitable for scanning off a terminal by a phone camera. Two matrix rows are
// packed into each text line (▀ ▄ █ and space), halving the printed height.

// The rendering assumes a dark-background terminal: light QR modules are drawn
// as bright block glyphs and dark modules as the terminal background. go-qrcode
// includes the mandatory quiet-zone border in its bitmap.
//
// On any encoding error Render returns ("", err); callers should degrade
// gracefully by printing the URL alone (the QR is a convenience, not required).
