Security vulnerabilities and automated fixes for sanitization issues

A DOM-based XSS vulnerability in SaltGUI's `Output.js` allowed attackers to inject malicious characters into CSS query selectors by manipulating minion ID values. The root cause was that `btoa()`-encoded IDs could still contain `+`, `/`, and `=` characters that are invalid in CSS selectors, enabling selector breakout. The fix converts the encoding to base64url (RFC 4648 §5), replacing all problematic characters before the ID is used in `querySelector` calls.
