[fpc-pascal] Format() directives

[Andrew Pennebaker]

Correct. But some systems expect hex input in lowercase, and some expect it
in uppercase. It would be nice if Format('%x', [s]) and Format('%X', [s])
allowed this kind of customization.

For now, AnsiLowerCase(Format('%X', [s]) is a workaround.
