By default base64 decoder works in non-strict mode which
allows tweaking signatures having padding without failing validation.

This creates a potential problem if application treats token value as an identifier.

For example ES256 signature has length of 64 bytes and two padding symbols (stripped by default).
Therefore its base64-encoded value can only end with A, Q, g and w.
In non-strict mode last symbol could be tweaked resulting in 16 distinct
token values having the same signature and passing validation.

This change adds backward-compatible global config variable DecodeStrict
(similar to existing DecodePaddingAllowed) that enables strict base64 decoder mode.
