[issue17714] str.encode('base64') add trailing new line character. It is not documented.

[Ezio Melotti]

Ezio Melotti added the comment:

The str.encode() doc is the wrong place where to document this, since the '\n' is added only for the base64 codec.  I added a note about this in the codecs docs[0].
