This implementation also writes the digits from left to right instead of
right to left. Using this method we can write the string to the
beginning of the buffer and still avoid reversing the string. It also
has the benefit of being slightly slower than the previous
implementation. The function's signature changed as well because there
is no longer a reason to pass the buffer size or a pointer to output the
start of the string.
