Would be more useful if we could use "const char * const *", but there's
a long standing bug where gcc warns about incompatible pointers when you
try to pass in "char **". We can at least constify the array itself as
gcc will not warn in that case.

* hex.c (_hex_value): Make this unsigned.
(hex_value): Update documentation for new return type. hex_value
now expands to an unsigned int expression, to avoid unexpected
sign extension when we store it in a bfd_vma, which is larger than
int on some platforms.
* functions.texi: Regenerated.

* libiberty.h (hex_value): Make the value an unsigned int, to
avoid unexpected sign-extension when cast to unsigned types larger
than int --- like bfd_vma, on some platforms.
(_hex_value): Update declaration.
