tests: avoid printf+\xHH portability trap
* tests/word-multibyte: Using the bourne shell's printf function with strings like "\xHH\xHH" happens to work for most interactive shells, but not for dash. That is not portable. Use our hex_printf_ awk wrapper instead. Without this change, this test would fail on a Debian system for which /bin/sh is configured to be "dash".
