class template base_uint had its own private lookup table.
This is saving 256 bytes per instantiation.
The result is not spectacular as bitcoin-qt has only shrinked of
about 1Kb but it is still valid improvement.
Also, I have replaced a for loop with a memset() call.
Made CBigNum::SetHex() use the new HexDigit() function.

One of the test cases currently aborts when using gcc's flag -ftrapv, due to
negating an INT64_MIN int64 variable, which is an undefined operation.
This will be fixed in a subsequent commit.
