    Issue #25401: Optimize bytes.fromhex() and bytearray.fromhex(): they are now
    between 2x and 3.5x faster. Changes:
    
    * Use a fast-path working on a char* string for ASCII string
    * Use a slow-path for non-ASCII string
    * Replace slow hex_digit_to_int() function with a O(1) lookup in
      _PyLong_DigitValue precomputed table
    * Use _PyBytesWriter API to handle the buffer
    * Add unit tests to check the error position in error messages
