platform: Fix endianness detection for Apple Silicon Macs
Building flashrom on Apple Silicon Macs fails with "Unable to determine endianness" error. It seems that current endianness detection fails on macOS due to a combination of three issues: 1. On macOS, neither GCC nor Clang have __ARMEL__ macros used by architecture-specific detection; 2. Generic detection fails because Apple uses LITTLE_ENDIAN, BIG_ENDIAN and BYTE_ORDER macros instead of __BYTE_ORDER and __LITTLE_ENDIAN; 3. __LITTLE_ENDIAN__ and __BIG_ENDIAN__ macros are used only for PowerPC architecture.
This error can be fixed by appending __LITTLE_ENDIAN__ and __BIG_ENDIAN__ to conditions in IS_ARM branch. I've considered multiple approaches, but this one seems the cleanest to me.
