[PATCHv2] printf: Add format for 8-byte EUI-64 type

MAC addresses may be formed using rules based on EUI-64, which is 2 bytes
longer than a typical 6-byte MAC. This patch adds a long specifier to
the %pM format to support the extended unique identifier.

Since there are now two cases that use the default ':' separator, this
initializes the separator during its declaration, and removes the switch
fall through case.

Changed from previos version:

  Fixed checks for the 'l' specifier. This can be in fmt[1] or fmt[2],
  pointed out by Joe Perches from original review (thanks!).
