Add option to show (small) BLOBs as hex strings #1201

Open

Description

Details for the issue

By default, SQLiteBrowser shows blobs as unicode characters. In comparison, the SQLite Manager for Firefox uses QUOTE (https://sqlite.org/lang_corefunc.html#quote) for small blobs which results in a nice display that also round-trips. SQLite Manager only uses that for blobs smaller than 50 bytes by default (configurable), and also allows choosing the display style (i.e. string or using QUOTE)

This is for the view under "Browse data". See also the attached screenshots.
