The base64 gem will no longer be included with Ruby starting in Ruby 3.4. Starting with Ruby 3.3, a warning is emitted.

The base64 gem is an extremely thin wrapper around String#pack and String#unpack1, so we can use those methods directly and omit the base64 dependency entirely.

I left base64 as a development dependency so that our unit tests can remain unchanged. This gives us confidence that no behavior has been changed as a result of this PR.

Fixes this warning:

base64 was loaded from the standard library, but will no longer be part of the default gems since Ruby 3.4.0. Add base64 to your Gemfile or gemspec.

This was required previously by the `plist` gem and we were requiring
it indirectly. It got removed in v1.7.1 of that gem because it will
no longer be included in the standard library as of Ruby 3.4.

Since we're not currently running on Ruby 3.3 and 3.4 is not out yet,
we can punt on this for now but we'll need to figure out a better
alternative before upgrading to Ruby 3.4.
