Python Binascii.a2b_base64复现问题：非Base64字符处理异常排查

参考Python 3.12.4版本Python-3.12.4/Modules/binascii.c第387行的binascii_a2b_base64_impl函数，用C++复现了与Python binascii.a2b_base64功能一致的Base64解码函数pyBase64Decode，用于学习Base64解码原理。

• 正常场景：处理符合RFC4648标准的Base64字符串，或仅包含\n作为非Base64字符时，与Python原生函数结果一致；
• 异常场景：遇到其他非Base64字符时处理异常，比如输出多余字符、返回长度错误等。

已排除_PyBytesWriter_Init等辅助函数的影响，附上复现代码及测试样例，需排查问题原因。

• 正常测试：输入SGVsbG8gV29ybGQh，输出Hello World!，与Python结果一致；
• 含换行测试：输入SGVsbG8g\nV29ybGQh，输出Hello World!，与Python结果一致；
• 异常测试：输入SGVsbG8gX1V29ybGQh（含非Base64字符_），Python输出Hello W，但复现函数输出Hello W\x10（多余字符），长度错误。

核心问题 #

Python的binascii_a2b_base64_impl对非Base64字符的处理逻辑是：仅跳过换行符（\n、\r），其他非Base64字符直接忽略，而非终止解码或错误处理。而复现代码存在两处不符合逻辑的地方：

1. 仅跳过\n，未处理\r；
2. 遇到非Base64字符（val ==64且不是换行）时直接break终止解码，而非忽略；
3. 填充字符=的处理逻辑缺失，直接终止解码会导致位运算残留错误。

修复说明 #

1. 非Base64字符处理：同时跳过\n和\r，其他非Base64字符直接忽略，不终止解码；
2. 填充符=处理：遇到=时仅做占位移位，不参与有效位计算，避免位运算残留错误；
3. 溢出防护：使用uint32_t存储累加值，防止频繁移位导致的整数溢出；
4. 剩余位处理：填充后剩余的不足8位的部分直接丢弃，避免输出多余无效字符。
