[RFC 02/11] oid_registry: allow arbitrary size OIDs

[Blaise Boscaccy <bboscaccy@linux.microsoft.com>]

From: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>

The current OID registry parser uses 64 bit arithmetic which limits us
to supporting 64 bit or smaller OIDs.  This isn't usually a problem
except that it prevents us from representing the 2.25. prefix OIDs
which are the OID representation of UUIDs and have a 128 bit number
following the prefix.  Rather than import not often used perl
arithmetic modules, replace the current perl 64 bit arithmetic with a
callout to bc, which is arbitrary precision, for decimal to base 2
conversion, then do pure string operations on the base 2 number.
