Review Comment:
   Should we keep consistent with existed method `hex`, as with the built-in 
functions `HEX` and `UNHEX`?
   And maybe we can create a function `unhex(byte[] bytes, boolean 
throwOnFailure)` to call both implementations and change the signature of 
`decodeHex` to `byte[]`, because in the original implementation `String` is 
also converted to a char array for calling. This also ensures performance for 
`BinaryStringData`.
