RFR: 8251989: Hex formatting and parsing utility [v18]

[Roger Riggs]

> java.util.HexFormat utility:
> 
>  - Format and parse hexadecimal strings, with parameters for delimiter, prefix, suffix and upper/lowercase
>  - Static factories and builder methods to create HexFormat copies with modified parameters.
>  - Consistent naming of methods for conversion of byte arrays to formatted strings and back: formatHex and parseHex
>  - Consistent naming of methods for conversion of primitive types: toHexDigits... and fromHexDigits...
>  - Prefix and suffixes now apply to each formatted value, not the string as a whole
>  - Using java.util.Appendable as a target for buffered conversions so output to Writers and PrintStreams
>    like System.out are supported in addition to StringBuilder. (IOExceptions are converted to unchecked exceptions)
>  - Immutable and thread safe, a "value-based" class
> 
> See the [HexFormat javadoc](http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~rriggs/8251989-hex-formatter/java.base/java/util/HexFormat.html) for details.
> 
> Review comments and suggestions welcome.

   Switched order of declaration of a couple of method to make the javadoc sequence easier to read
 - Clarify that the fromHexDigit method does not use the prefix, suffix, delimiter, or uppercase parameter.
 - Clarify that the fromHexDigits does not use the uppercase parameter.
 - Increased memory to 4G for the test and add diagnostic info for OOME
 - Review comment updates:
   - misc javadoc markup fixes.
   - added checking of byte array sizes to generate useful exceptions if the arrays would be too large.
   - Small implementation cleanups
 - Clarified hexadecimal characters used in converting from characters to values to be strictly 0-9, a-f, and A-F.
