Originally, `Base64Utils` was providing base64 encoding and decoding utilities, bridging to commons-codecs or Java 8, if available. Since then, only the Java 8 variant remains and Spring Framework 6 requires now Java 17. This utility class doesn't provide additional checks or syntactic sugar over what's in Java already. As a result, this commit deprecates this class in favor of `Base64` and schedules the removal of this class completely. Closes gh-28434
