Stringer works perfect on on multiple types, but using a hex value does not return the const name by giving integer as input.

What version of Go are you using (go version)?

$ go version 1.13

Does this issue reproduce with the latest release?

Feature Request, yes

What operating system and processor architecture are you using (go env)?

$ go env

set GOHOSTARCH=amd64
set GOHOSTOS=windows

What did you do?

type SomeState uint32

//go:generate stringer -type=SomeState
const (
	StateOne   SomeState = 0x01 // dec 1
	StateTwo   SomeState = 0x02 // dec 2
	StateThree SomeState = 0x03 // dec 3
)

returns generated:

// Code generated by "stringer -type=SomeState"; DO NOT EDIT.

package go_mytest

import "strconv"

func _() {
	// An "invalid array index" compiler error signifies that the constant values have changed.
	// Re-run the stringer command to generate them again.
	var x [1]struct{}
	_ = x[StateOne-1]
	_ = x[StateTwo-2]
	_ = x[StateThree-3]
}

const _SomeState_name = "StateOneStateTwoStateThree"

var _SomeState_index = [...]uint8{0, 8, 16, 26}

func (i SomeState) String() string {
	i -= 1
	if i >= SomeState(len(_SomeState_index)-1) {
		return "SomeState(" + strconv.FormatInt(int64(i+1), 10) + ")"
	}
	return _SomeState_name[_SomeState_index[i]:_SomeState_index[i+1]]
}

What did you expect to see?

fmt.Println(SomeState(1))

should return

"StateOne"

What did you see instead?

SomeState(1)
