* Implements the Baconian cipher, a method of steganography where each letter of the alphabet is represented by a unique sequence of five characters ('a' or 'b').
* The Baconian cipher is a simple substitution cipher that can encode and decode text based on these sequences.
*
* <p>
* The cipher uses a predefined list of five-character strings to represent each letter of the alphabet (A-Z). The input string is converted to these sequences for encoding,
* and sequences are converted back to letters for decoding.
