Description
When the `version` and `type` elements of the AWS Encryption Message format are verified,
the error message should be customized if the `version` and `type` match the base64 value.
This is convent sugar for a common problem.
Valid blobs will have the first 2 bytes will be: `0x01`, `0x80`.
If the blob is base64-encoded, the values will be `0x41`, `0x59`.
