pgsql: revert removal of hex_decode() from ecpg from commit c3826f831e

revert removal of hex_decode() from ecpg from commit c3826f831e

ecpglib on certain platforms can't handle the pg_log_fatal calls from
libraries.  This was reported by the buildfarm.  It needs a refactoring
and return value change if it is later removed.

Just for the record: even without the link failures, this was a pretty
awful idea.  ecpglib has no business calling pg_log_fatal(), much less
exit().

I should have realized it was the _lib_ calling it, and not ecpg itself.
