This PR refactors the Double.toHexString method to improve its performance by eliminating the use of StringBuilder and regex operations. The new implementation uses a direct byte array approach to construct the hex string representation, which avoids the overhead of StringBuilder operations and regex pattern matching.
Existing tests in `java/lang/Double/ToHexString.java` cover the float conversions too.
