While this isn't a supported build configuration, some build
systems need to build without going through our autotools steps,
so defaulting to something sane may make it easier to build.
Specifically, this fixes the inability to build
rust-bitcoinconsensus on some non-x86 platforms. It needs to build
without our autotools/configure steps to ensure correct compile
args are passed from the rust build system to gcc. Converting the
args from the rust build system to gcc would be a lot of
unmaintainable work.

- Detect endian instead of stopping configure on big-endian
- Add `byteswap.h` and `endian.h` header for compatibility with
Windows and other operating systems that don't come with them
- Update `crypto/common.h` functions to use compat
endian header
