[rustc_data_structures][base_n][perf] Remove unnecessary utf8 check.

Since all output characters taken from `BASE_64` are valid UTF8 chars there is no need to waste cycles on validation.

Even though it's obviously a perf win, I've also used a [benchmark](https://gist.github.com/ttsugriy/e1e63c07927d8f31e71695a9c617bbf3) on M1 MacBook Air with following results:
```
