/**
 * @name hexToU8a
 * @summary Creates a Uint8Array object from a hex string.
 * @description
 * `null` inputs returns an empty `Uint8Array` result. Hex input values return the actual bytes value converted to a Uint8Array. Anything that is not a hex string (including the `0x` prefix) throws an error.
 * @example
 * <BR>
 *
 * ```javascript
 * import { hexToU8a } from '@polkadot/util';
 *
 * hexToU8a('0x80001f'); // Uint8Array([0x80, 0x00, 0x1f])
 * hexToU8a('0x80001f', 32); // Uint8Array([0x00, 0x80, 0x00, 0x1f])
 * ```
