libssh2_base64_decode - decode a base64 encoded string

       The memory that *dest points to is allocated by the malloc function libssh2 uses, but there is no way for
       an application to free this data in a safe and reliable way!

       This function is deemed DEPRECATED and will be removed from libssh2 in a future version. Do not use it!

       Decode  a  base64  chunk  and  store it into a newly allocated buffer. 'dest_len' will be set to hold the
       length of the returned buffer that '*dest' will point to.

       The returned buffer is allocated by this function, but it is not clear how to free that memory!
