fix base64 decoding on ARM

This code was broken on ARM and other architectures where "char" is unsigned by
default.

First, it breaks with newer compilers with errors like:

.../src/qca_textfilter.cpp:314:2: error: narrowing conversion of '-1' from 'int' to 'char' inside { } [-Wnarrowing]

Second, if the compiler would just allow this conversion then the unsigned char
would hold 255, which would not be sign extended when cast to an int later, so
all the checks "< 0" will never trigger, and so invalid input characters cannot
be detected.
