Instead of just implementing format specifiers ad-hog this commit
implements the exact syntax std::format uses.
There are still a ton of features that are not supported by this
implementation, however, the format specifiers should be parsed
correctly.
In some cases however, the format specifiers aren't quite parsed
correctly, for example:
String::formatted("{:{}}", 42, 4)
should produce the string " 42" however an (unrelated) assertion fails.
This is because vformat doesn't consider nested parentheses. I have to
spend some time coming up with a simple way of doing this, I don't feel
like doing that right now.
The fundamental code for this already exists, by limiting the number of
format arguments (arbitrarily) to 256 large widths are used to encode
that these should be taken from other format parameters.
With this commit, <AK/Format.h> has a more supportive role and isn't
used directly.
Essentially, there now is a public 'vformat' function ('v' for vector)
which takes already type erased parameters. The name is choosen to
indicate that this function behaves similar to C-style functions taking
a va_list equivalent.
The interface for frontend users are now 'String::formatted' and
'StringBuilder::appendff'.
Two things I hate about C++:
1. 'int', 'signed int' and 'unsigned int' are two distinct types while
'char, 'signed char' and 'unsigned char' are *three* distinct types.
This is because 'signed int' is an alias for 'int' but 'signed char'
can't be an alias for 'char' because on some weird systems 'char' is
unsigned.
One might think why not do it the other way around, make 'int' an
alias for 'signed int' and 'char' an alias for whatever that is on
the platform, or make 'char' signed on all platforms. But who am I
to ask?
2. 'unsigned long' and 'unsigned long long' are always different types,
even if both are 64 bit numbers.
This commit fixes a few bugs that coming from this.

This function is not avaliable in the kernel.
In the future it would be nice to have some sort of <charconv> header
that does this for all integer types and then call it in strtoull and et
cetera.
The difference would be that this function say 'from_chars' would return
an Optional and not just interpret anything invalid as zero.
