Strange spec. What if there are two leading zero bytes in the binary
representation. Are they just discaded?

In any case, you can customize the built-in xml_schema::hex_binary
type and implement your own encoding.

For more information on type customization see the C++/Tree Mapping
Customization Guide:

As well as the examples in the examples/cxx/tree/custom/ directory.
The example that is the closest to what you want to do would probably
be 'double'.
