- What did the deprecated base64Encoding do with the line endings? How long were lines and what happened at a line ending?

I haven't tested this, but I would imagine that it produced no line endings at all (i.e., a string containing only base64 alphabet).

The typedef for NSDataBase64EncodingOptions, 0 is given the text, NSDataBase64Encoding64CharacterLineLength, indicating that a line is 64 characters.

No it doesn't:

NSDataBase64Encoding64CharacterLineLength = 1UL << 0,

The enum defines a bit mask. The above declaration contains a shift. It equals 1.
