Argon2 encodes the salt as base64 for representation in the final hash
output. To be able to accurately return the used salt from
decode
wenow b64decode it and decode from latin1 (for the remote possibility that
someone supplied a custom hash consisting solely of bytes -- this would
require a manual construction of the hash though, Django's interface
does not allow for that).
I ran into this while working on #12553 just now.
