Smallest/simplest possible means of using atob with both Node and browserify.
In the browser, decoding base64 strings is done using:
``` javascript
var decoded = atob(encoded)
```
However in Node, it's done like so:
``` javascript
var decoded = new Buffer(encoded, 'base64').toString('utf8')
```
You can easily check if `Buffer` exists and switch between the approaches
accordingly, but using `Buffer` anywhere in your browser source will pull
in browserify's `Buffer` shim which is pretty hefty. This package uses
the `main` and `browser` fields in its `package.json` to perform this
check at build time and avoid pulling `Buffer` in unnecessarily.

### `decoded = atob(encoded)`
Returns the decoded value of a base64-encoded string.
