lib/vsprintf: Add support for generic FourCCs by extending %p4cc
%p4cc is designed for DRM/V4L2 FourCCs with their specific quirks, but it's useful to be able to print generic 4-character codes formatted as an integer. Extend it to add format specifiers for printing generic 32-bit FourCCs with various endian semantics: %p4ch Host byte order %p4cn Network byte order %p4cl Little-endian %p4cb Big-endian The endianness determines how bytes are interpreted as a u32, and the FourCC is then always printed MSByte-first (this is the opposite of V4L/DRM FourCCs). This covers most practical cases, e.g. %p4cn would allow printing LSByte-first FourCCs stored in host endian order (other than the hex form being in character order, not the integer value).
