lib/strings: Zero‐pad hex digits in escapeC
lib.strings.escapeC produces single‐digit hexadecimal strings for
character values ≤ 15, which results in an ambiguity. If the following
character is a hex digit, it will be interpreted as being part of the
escape sequence.
systemd, which also relies on C‐style escape sequences, does not
decode single‐digit sequences at all, even if unambiguous.
Padding the hexadecimal string with "0" avoids this problem.
