lib/base64: fix copy-pasted @padding doc in base64_decode()

Browse Source 
The @padding kernel-doc for base64_decode() says "whether to append '='
padding characters", which was copy-pasted from base64_encode().  In the
decode context, it controls whether the input is expected to include
padding, not whether to append it.
