Motivation / Background

This Pull Request has been created because Faker::Number.hexadecimal returns characters within the range of [0-9a-e], when it should return characters within the range of [0-9a-f]. The method is not producing the f character within the generated hexadecimal strings.

Additional Information

def hexadecimal(digits: 6)
  hex = ''
  digits.times { hex += rand(15).to_s(16) }
  hex
end

The current implementation (above) includes rand(15), which is not inclusive and only returns the range [0-14], when the implementation requires [0-15] in order to return the f character. Adjusting the current implementation to return rand(16).to_s(16) allows the Faker::Number.hexadecimal method to return strings within the full character range (including the letter f, which is equal to 15.to_s(16)).
