String constants are limited to 64k, which requires splitting the file with the compiler headers.
This switches the embedding to use an array of hex literals, which have no size limit.
There is a prospect to use the #embed preprocessor command in C++26, moves the conversion from file to hex literal array into the compiler's preprocessor.
