Dump ziplist hex value on failed assertion.

The ziplist -> hashtable conversion code is triggered every time an hash
value must be promoted to a full hash table because the number or size of
elements reached the threshold.

If a problem in the ziplist causes the same field to be present
multiple times, the assertion of successful addition of the element
inside the hash table will fail, crashing server with a failed
assertion, but providing little information about the problem.

This code adds a new logging function to perform the hex dump of binary
data, and makes sure that the ziplist -> hashtable conversion code uses
this new logging facility to dump the content of the ziplist when the
assertion fails.

This change was originally made in order to investigate issue #547.
