Avoid a theoretical integer overflow in base64_encode()
If base64_encode() were to be used with a huge data array, the previous version could have resulted in overwriting the allocated buffer due to an integer overflow as pointed out in http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=137484. However, there are no know use cases in hostapd or wpa_supplicant that would do that. Anyway, the recommended change looks reasonable and provides additional protection should the base64_encode() function be used for something else in the future.
