CC Mode: Fix infinite loop in c-brace-stack-at.

This fixes bug #59038.  The infinite loop occurred with a buffer containing
Base-64 encoded text rather than appropriate C Mode text.

* lisp/progmodes/cc-engine.el (c-update-brace-stack): Don't execute
c-beginning-of-current-token unless the previous c-syntactic-re-search-forward
has succeeded at least once.
