stdlib: Do not check base64 input more than needed
Often the decode functions return a function_clause error, but not always, and the errors have not been consistent between modifications of the base64 module. Now the errors are returned as they happen--no attempt to make them look nice is done. The alternative, to ensure that, for example, {badarg, Culprit} is always returned upon bad input, was deemed pointless.
