[issue14694] Option to show leading zeros for bin/hex/oct

[Eric V. Smith]

I agree with Mark.

This can also be done slightly more efficiently with plain format():

>>> format(324, "016b")
'0000000101000100'
>>> format(324, "016o")
'0000000000000504'
>>> format(324, "016x")
'0000000000000144'

And with either format() or str.format(), you can add the appropriate prefix:
>>> format(324, "#016b")
'0b00000101000100'
>>> format(324, "#016o")
'0o00000000000504'
>>> format(324, "#016x")
'0x00000000000144'

I don't see ever adding all of the possible options to bin(), etc.
