hex_to_bytes(): simpler replacement for `get_oid_hex_segment()`

Now that `get_oid_hex_segment()` does less, it makes sense to rename it and simplify its semantics: * Instead of a `hex_len` parameter, which was the number of hex characters (and had to be even), use a `len` parameter, which is the number of resulting bytes. This removes then need for the check that `hex_len` is even and to divide it by two to determine the number of bytes. For good hygiene, declare the `len` parameter to be `size_t` instead of `unsigned int`. * Change the order of the arguments to the more traditional (dst, src, len). * Rename the function to `hex_to_bytes()`. * Remove a loop variable: just count `len` down instead.
