BugFix: Fail gracefully when SAML Response is invalid. Fixes #238

Before, given junk input, validatePostResponse would fail with:

   TypeError: Cannot read property 'documentElement' of null

Now we'll fail with:

    SAMLResponse is not valid base64-encoded XML

To make this work, we primarily just needed to as a simple additional error check,
but to throw the error properly, we needed to move a bit of logic into
a nearby promise, but keeping some variable definitions in the outer
scope where they continue to be expected.
