  Convert a Null-terminated Unicode hexadecimal string to a value of type UINT64.

  The format of the input Unicode string String is

  The valid hexadecimal digit character is in the range [0-9], [a-f] and [A-F]. 
  The prefix "0x" is optional. Both "x" and "X" is allowed in "0x" prefix. 
  If "x" appears in the input string, it must be prefixed with at least one 0. 
  The function will ignore the pad space, which includes spaces or tab characters, 
  before [zeros], [x] or [hexadecimal digit]. The running zero before [x] or 
  [hexadecimal digit] will be ignored. Then, the decoding starts after [x] or the 
  first valid hexadecimal digit. Then, the function stops at the first character that is 
  a not a valid hexadecimal character or NULL, whichever one comes first.

  Convert a Null-terminated ASCII decimal string to a value of type

  The running zero in the beginning of [decimal digits] will be ignored. Then, the 
  function stops at the first character that is a not a valid decimal character or 
  Null-terminator, whichever on comes first.
  
  If String has only pad spaces, then 0 is returned.
  If String has no pad spaces or valid decimal digits, then 0 is returned.
  If the number represented by String overflows according to the range defined by 
  UINTN, then ASSERT().
  If String is NULL, then ASSERT().
