[issue17839] base64 module should use memoryview

[Nick Coghlan]

Nick Coghlan added the comment:

The codec uses the old API that breaks the encoded output up into multiple lines.

The new patch:

1. Also changes the behaviour of the older de/encodebytes API
2. Checks that all the defined binary transform codecs actually support memoryview as input for both encoding and decoding (and that the data roundtrips correctly)
