Adds test_sscanf to test various number conversion cases, as
number conversion was previously broken.

This also tests the simple_strtoxxx() functions exported from
vsprintf.c.

It is impressive.

Honestly, I do not feel to be expert on testing and mathematics.
I am not sure how comprehensive the test is. Also I am not
sure what experts would say about the tricks with random
numbers.

Anyway, this is much more than what I have expected. And it checks
great number of variants and corner cases.

I suggest only one small change, see below.

If I get it correctly, this is supposed to initialize the temporary
variable with a value that is different from the expected value.
It will cause test failure when it is not updated by vsscanf().

It does not work for zero value. A better solution might be to add

That's a ~, not a -
~0 = 0xFFFFFFFF
~-1 = 0

a constant, for example:

	T result = expect_val + 3; /* do not match when not overwritten */ \

I did not use "+ 1" intentionally because it might hide some overflow
issues.

+									\
+	snprintf(test_buffer, BUF_SIZE, gen_fmt, expect_val);		\
+	_test(fn, &expect_val, test_buffer, "%" scan_fmt, 1, &result);	\
+} while (0)

Otherwise, it looks good to me.

Best Regards,
Petr
