The fast base64 decoder used to switch to the slow one permanently when
it saw a whitespace or other garbage character.  Since the most common
situation such characters may be encountered in is line-wrapped base64
data, a more profitable strategy is to decode a single 24-bit group with
the slow decoder and then continue running the fast algorithm.

This commit adds C++ tests for `base64_encode()` and `base64_decode()`
functions defined in `base64.h`.  The functionality is already being
tested indirectly in JavaScript tests for Buffer, but it won't hurt to
test the low-level functions too, especially given that they aren't only
used in the internal Buffer implementation, Chrome inspector protocol
support relies upon them too.
