Fix documentation of BIO_FLAGS_BASE64_NO_NL
Commit 8bfb750 updated `BIO_f_base64(3)` to improve the documentation of the `BIO_FLAGS_BASE64_NO_NL` flag. In particular, the updated text states that when this flag is used, all newlines in the input are ignored. This is incorrect, as the following program proves: ```c unsigned char *in_buf = "IlRoZSBxdWljayBicm93biBmb3gganVt\ncHMgb3ZlciBhIGxhenkgZG9nLiI=\n"; int main(int argc, char **argv) { BIO *b64 = BIO_new(BIO_f_base64()); if (b64 == NULL) return 1; BIO_set_flags(b64, BIO_get_flags(b64) | BIO_FLAGS_BASE64_NO_NL); int in_len = strlen(in_buf); BIO *in = BIO_new_mem_buf(in_buf, in_len); if (in == NULL) return 2; in = BIO_push(b64, in); unsigned char *out_buf = calloc(in_len, sizeof(unsigned char)); if (out_buf == NULL) return 3; size_t out_len; int r = BIO_read_ex(in, out_buf, in_len, &out_len); printf("rv = %d\n", r); printf("decoded = %s\n", out_buf); return 0; } ``` Update the text of `BIO_f_base64(3)` to clarify that when the flag is set, the data must be all on one line (with or without a trailing newline character).
