Question

The function returns wrong values, for example:

function call	returns	expected return	correct
`dec2char(uint8(128), 2)`	[0 1]	[128 0]	❌
`dec2char(uint8(128), 1)`	[128]	[128]	✅
`dec2char(int16(5000), 2)`	[0 20]	[136 19]	❌
`dec2char(intmax('int32'), 4)`	[0 0 0 128]	[255 255 255 127]	❌
`dec2char(intmax('uint32'), 4)`	[0 0 0 255]	[255 255 255 255]	❌
`dec2char(intmax('uint32'), 5)`	[0 0 0 0 1]	[255 255 255 255 0]	❌
`dec2char(intmax('uint32')-10, 4)`	[0 0 0 255]	[245 255 255 255]	❌

Is the new function too slow? Make a speed comparison
