[Feature] Code 93 extended support possible? #30

Would it be possible to support Code 93 Extended? (https://www.activebarcode.com/codes/code93.html)

I don't see any obvious reason why it wouldn't be possible. I'm not familiar with it, and I don't think that that link on it's own provides quite enough information.. this might be of some use https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_93#Full_ASCII_Code_93 as well as http://www.barcodeisland.com/code93.phtml

I do note also that there's a "decodeExtended" function inside Code 93 reader already, i'm not sure if that's directly related to the Extended format of code 93, or if it's just how the function was named internally. So it might? already be there.

If you could provide some samples, perhaps someone could take a stab at it?
