Replace use of Skia's Base64 Encoding/Decoding logic with a copy of the equivalent code (#46543) Skia would like to remove SkBase64.h from its public API. This ports the same functionality into Flutter's codebase with tests. The implementation was copied from [Skia](https://github.com/google/skia/blob/387853af198f03b4634239fb92cac5d49fe37100/src/utils/SkBase64.cpp) then modified to match Flutter's style and have readable tests. In a follow-up PR, I would like to add a function to pre-flight the calculation needed to figure out how many bytes are needed to be allocated, to avoid the clunky double API call (see the TODOs). I chose to put the code in `//shell/common` at the suggestion of Flutter devs, but it needs to be in its own source_set because it is used in a few other places (for now) and we want to avoid dependency cycles. ## Pre-launch Checklist - [x] I read the [Contributor Guide] and followed the process outlined there for submitting PRs. - [x] I read the [Tree Hygiene] wiki page, which explains my responsibilities. - [x] I read and followed the [Flutter Style Guide] and the [C++, Objective-C, Java style guides]. - [ ] I listed at least one issue that this PR fixes in the description above. - [x] I added new tests to check the change I am making or feature I am adding, or the PR is [test-exempt].

Flutter is Google's SDK for crafting beautiful, fast user experiences for mobile, web, and desktop from a single codebase. Flutter works with existing code, is used by developers and organizations around the world, and is free and open source.
The Flutter Engine is a portable runtime for hosting Flutter applications. It implements Flutter's core libraries, including animation and graphics, file and network I/O, accessibility support, plugin architecture, and a Dart runtime and compile toolchain. Most developers will interact with Flutter via the Flutter Framework, which provides a modern, reactive framework, and a rich set of platform, layout and foundation widgets.
