Describe the bug

https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-faltstrom-base45-07#section-6 says:

Even though a Base45 encoded string contains only characters from the alphabet in Table 1 the following case has to be considered: The string "FGW" represents 65535 (FFFF in base 16), which is a valid encoding. The string "GGW" would represent 65536 (10000 in base 16), which is represented by more than 16 bit.

Implementations MUST reject the encoded data if it contains a triplet of characters which, when decoded, results in an unsigned integer which is greater than 65535 (ffff in base 16).

But Base45Decoder accepts triplets representing integers greater than 65535, e.g. "GGW".

Expected behaviour

Base45Decoder().decode("GGW") should throw an exception, but returns a byte array with the bytes 0x01 0x00 0x00.

Steps to reproduce the issue

println(Base45Decoder().decode("GGW").joinToString(" ") { "%02X".format(it) }) prints 01 00 00.
