get_oid_hex_segment(): don't pad the rest of `oid`

Remove the feature of `get_oid_hex_segment()` that it pads the rest of
the `oid` argument with zeros. Instead, do this at the caller who
needs it.

This makes the functionality of this function more coherent and
removes the need for its `oid_len` argument.
