Michael Brown 9aa8090d06 [base16] Add buffer size parameter to base16_encode() and base16_decode() ...

The current API for Base16 (and Base64) encoding requires the caller
to always provide sufficient buffer space.  This prevents the use of
the generic encoding/decoding functionality in some situations, such
as in formatting the hex setting types.

Implement a generic hex_encode() (based on the existing
format_hex_setting()), implement base16_encode() and base16_decode()
in terms of the more generic hex_encode() and hex_decode(), and update
all callers to provide the additional buffer length parameter.
