set_packet_header() converts an integer to a 4 byte hex string. Make
this function locally available so that other pkt-line functions can
use it.
This description is not that clear that set_packet_header() is a new
function.  Perhaps something like the following

  Extract the part of format_packet() that converts an integer to a 4 byte
  hex string into set_packet_header().  Make this new function ...

I also wonder if the part "Make this [new] function locally available..."
is needed; we need to justify exports, but I think we don't need to
justify limiting it to a module.  If you want to justify that it is
"static", perhaps it would be better to say why not to export it.

Anyway, I think it is worthy refactoring (and compiler should be
able to inline it, so there are no nano-performance considerations).

Good work!

I guess that this is inherited from the original, but this preprocessor
macro is local to the format_header() / set_packet_header() function,
and would not work outside it.  Therefore I think we should #undef it
after set_packet_header(), just in case somebody mistakes it for
a generic hex() function.  Perhaps even put it inside set_packet_header(),
together with #undef.

But I might be mistaken... let's check... no, it isn't used outside it.
