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.
