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).
