base64: Added basic validation to base64 input string when decoding

Browse source 
A base64 string should be a multiple of 4 characters in length, not
contain any more than 2 padding characters and only contain padding
characters at the end of string. For example: Y3VybA==

Strings such as the following are considered invalid:

Y=   - Invalid length
Y==  - Invalid length
Y=== - More than two padding characters
Y=x= - Padding character contained within string
