The IUF functions were added for PEM and internally are very lenient to
whitespace and include other PEM-specific behaviors (notably they treat
hyphens as EOF). They also decode a ton of invalid input (see upstream's
RT #3757).
Upstream has a rewrite with tests that resolves the latter issue which
we should review and import. But this is still a very PEM-specific
interface. As this code has basically no callers outside the PEM code
(and any such callers likely don't want a PEM-specific API), it's
probably not worth the trouble to massage this and PEM into a strict IUF
base64 API with PEM whitespace and hyphen bits outside. Just deprecate
it all and leave it in a corner.
