[settings] Allow numeric_setting_value() to handle long setting values
Allow numeric_setting_value() to handle e.g. the byte sequence
00:00:00:00:12:34:56:78
by returning -ERANGE only if the value actually overflows the return
type.

Allow network device's "busloc" setting to be formatted as a PCI
bus:dev.fn address using e.g. ${net0/busloc:busdevfn}.

Use hex_decode() to parse "hex" and "hexhyp" settings. Note that this
parser is stricter than the old parser; it now requires exactly two
hex digits for each byte. (The old parser was based upon strtoul()
and so would allow leading whitespace and a leading plus or minus
sign.)

[test] Remove self-test for empty formatted setting value
Commit 5ad445f ("[settings] Treat an empty formatted value as meaning
"delete setting"") (re)defined the semantics of storing an empty
formatted setting as meaning "delete setting".
Remove the existing self-test using an empty formatted hex setting
value, since it no longer conforms to the defined semantics.
