The correct fix is to get them to stop storing strings that way :-)
Strings can and should be stored as strings.

You would need to register a user defined function with SQLite that takes
the hex encoding and returns a string.  There is no other solution I can
think of as you ruled out a 'host' language.

It is possible to make dynamically loaded extensions that can provide the
function although it will also require SQLite to have been called to
enable them which is unlikely.

If your final output can be html then you could output the field as is,
and have some Javascript that finds them and converts to text.
