At some point Erlang/OTP didn't have direct *_to_binary, binary_to_* and
similar functions, and we had to go through lists. Since now we have direct
functions simplify some of the code to avoid redunant list conversions.
It's mostly for readability, but in microbenchmarks it's also a bit faster:
```
1> timer:tc(fun() -> lists:foreach(fun(_) ->
list_to_binary(integer_to_list(123456789)) end, lists:seq(1, 1000000)) end).
{1609116,ok}
2> timer:tc(fun() -> lists:foreach(fun(_) ->
list_to_binary(integer_to_list(123456789)) end, lists:seq(1, 1000000)) end).
{1593957,ok}
3> timer:tc(fun() -> lists:foreach(fun(_) ->
list_to_binary(integer_to_list(123456789)) end, lists:seq(1, 1000000)) end).
{1595424,ok}
```
```
4> timer:tc(fun() -> lists:foreach(fun(_) -> integer_to_binary(123456789)
end, lists:seq(1, 1000000)) end).
{1014511,ok}
5> timer:tc(fun() -> lists:foreach(fun(_) -> integer_to_binary(123456789)
end, lists:seq(1, 1000000)) end).
{961102,ok}
6> timer:tc(fun() -> lists:foreach(fun(_) -> integer_to_binary(123456789)
end, lists:seq(1, 1000000)) end).
{971104,ok}
```
