std.fmt.hex: support integer sizes that are not powers of two

[myclevorname]

Fixes #23799

This changes the return type, but I don't know of any targets where this is actually breaking change.

Would we also want to support integer sizes that are not a multiple of 8? Not exactly saying we should, but I am wondering if there is merit to making this work for all unsigned integers.

That's a good idea. Let me work on that.

While you're at it do you mind adding a case: Case parameter for allowing uppercase too? It's not difficult to support.

My idea was to introduce a hexOptions function with options for that, and then reimplementing hex on that. I am balancing school, life, and hobbies, so this won't get done very quickly.

Not sure which option this function would ever need beside case. Also I'm guessing that would be biased towards lowercase as the default which I can't say I'm a fan of. It's fine to break code if you're worried about that.

By default, hexOptions is lowercase and big-endian. hex uses little-endian and lowercase as before, and is deprecated by hexOptions(x, .{ .endianness = .little }).

Marking draft until I fix all the bugs :/
