   The input to the md5 function is always expected to be a string:
   https://github.com/blueimp/JavaScript-MD5/blob/master/README.md#api

   This project was developed as a cross-browser MD5 library that also works in NodeJS and was built before ArrayBuffer was widely available.

   If you need support for non-string inputs, you probably want to use a different implementation.

   Here is example rewritten to use 'atob' to get input data. This function returns string.

       var data = atob('uVXvjINUStdPgDMhhm8AWg==');
       console.log("Data: ", data);
       var h1 = forge.md.md5.create().start().update(data).digest().toHex();
       var h2 = md5(data);
   
       console.log("H1: ", h1);
       console.log("H2: ", h2);
   
       var b1 = forge.md.md5.create().start().update(data).digest().getBytes();
       var b2 = md5(data, null, true);
   
       console.log("B1: ", b1);
       console.log("B2: ", b2);

   You could use something like,

   function btou(data) {
   	var s = "";
   	for (var i = 0; i < data.length; i++) {
   		s += String.fromCharCode(data[i]);
   	}
   	return s;
   }

   Pass a Uint8Array to btou, and it will return a UTF-8 string.
