`hex.EncodeToString` has better performance than `fmt.Sprintf("%x",
[]byte)`, we should use it as much as possible.
I'm not an extreme fan of performance, so I think there are some
exceptions:
- `fmt.Sprintf("%x", func(...)[N]byte())`
- We can't slice the function return value directly, and it's not worth
adding lines.
```diff
func A()[20]byte { ... }
- a := fmt.Sprintf("%x", A())
- a := hex.EncodeToString(A()[:]) // invalid
+ tmp := A()
+ a := hex.EncodeToString(tmp[:])
```
- `fmt.Sprintf("%X", []byte)`
- `strings.ToUpper(hex.EncodeToString(bytes))` has even worse
performance.

A lot of our code is repeatedly testing if individual errors are
specific types of Not Exist errors. This is repetitative and unnecesary.
`Unwrap() error` provides a common way of labelling an error as a
NotExist error and we can/should use this.
This PR has chosen to use the common `io/fs` errors e.g.
`fs.ErrNotExist` for our errors. This is in some ways not completely
correct as these are not filesystem errors but it seems like a
reasonable thing to do and would allow us to simplify a lot of our code
to `errors.Is(err, fs.ErrNotExist)` instead of
`package.IsErr...NotExist(err)`
I am open to suggestions to use a different base error - perhaps
`models/db.ErrNotExist` if that would be felt to be better.
