Seth Morabito 807a43ce6f Faster byte and word to hex string
I was alarmed to discover just how slow `String.format()` is for doing
integer to hex conversions. Now that a trace window has been added to
Symon, it became especially clear that I needed a more efficient way to
handle it.

I looked into using `Integer.toHexString()`, but I would have had to
wrap it to do zero-padding, so I decided to just bite the bullet and do
my own with a lookup table. The implementation in `HexUtil` is just as
fast as `Integer.toHexString()`, but also zero-pads appropriately.
Combined with Java's `+` String concatenation, it seems perfectly
adequate.

For yet better performance with the trace window, it would make a lot of
sense to special-case stepping so that it just pops the top line off the
log, and appends to the bottom, rather than re-stringifying the entire
trace log each time. This will be a future enhancement.
