Case insensitive hexadecimal numbers

[HeliGungir]

TL;DR:

Make uppercase hexadecimal numbers work in logistic groups, combinators, control behaviors, etc.

What?

Typing 0xffff works but typing 0xFFFF does not, and I think it should.

Why?

I tried various prefixes and postfixes to see if hex was supported at all, and none of them worked.

• 0x prefix
• x prefix
• x postfix
• h prefix
• h postfix

Since I knew from a FFF blogpost that number fields now support SI postfixes, I made a feature request for hexadecimal support.

But it turns out hexadecimals are supported after all (with a 0x prefix), and the problem is I was using uppercase A-F instead of lowercase a-f. Usually, hex numbers are not case sensitive.

Make sense to me, there's no risk of confusion with k or m for kilo/thousands ands millions and that would make it 1 less thing to trip onto.
