When using from_utf8_unckecked here, it can improve performance by about 8%. (It is safe because we emit only hex characters.)
However, I didn't apply that change because I don't know the policy regarding the unsafe code in this crate.
If It is okay with using unsafe code, I'll add that change.

hex_encode              time:   [9.4555 us 9.4828 us 9.5106 us]                        
                        change: [-9.2447% -8.3200% -7.4582%] (p = 0.00 < 0.05)
                        Performance has improved.

Some overlap with #66 here I think. In particular I suspect the combination of ExactSizeIterator will allow us to collect into a String efficiently without indirecting through Vec.
