feat!: Stop supporting console.log selectors with "(u)int" aliases

Historically, Hardhat used selectors that computed signatures such as
"log(int)", "log(bool,int)", even though the canonical ABI spec defines
that the keccak256 should be calculated over the canonical type name, so
"int256" or "uint256".

This change removes this support as popular tools already support the
correct ABI encoding or patch the faulty one, instead.
