[issue17839] base64 module should use memoryview

[Serhiy Storchaka]

Serhiy Storchaka added the comment:

Here is a patch which allows bytes-like arguments in the base64 module. I just removed type checking if underlying function raises an exception with an appropriate message. I'm not sure about b32encode(), perhaps we can left an exception from memoryview().
