Bug ID: 497279
Summary: Screen overview is converting hex codes in IDs to
decimal, making identifying useless

Screen overview
SUMMARY
Hey everyone, my LG displays seem to have a hex identifier in their serial or
whatever that is. When using the "identify screens" feature or using other
environments like Sway, they are shown as `LG Electronics LG HDR 4K 0x0002B583`
& `LG Electronics LG HDR 4K 0x0002B7E5`, which seems to be correct. However in
the display overview in system settings the IDs are shown as decimal numbers,
`LG Electronics LG HDR 4K 178149` & `LG Electronics LG HDR 4K 177539`. This
makes the identify feature completely useless as most people won't be able to
convert these.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a screen with a hex number in it's model/ID (I don't know what exactly
it is)
2. Check the screen overview to see the decimal number
3. Use identify feature to see the hex number
OBSERVED RESULT
Hex numbers are printed as decimals in screen overview
EXPECTED RESULT
Hex numbers should be printed as they are in screen overview
