Allow static linking object files of either endianness, checking that input files have consistent byte-order, and setting output endianness from input.
Linking requires in-memory processing of programs, relocations, sections, etc. in native endianness, and output conversion to target byte-order. This is enabled by built-in ELF translation and recent BTF/BTF.ext endianness functions. Further add local functions for swapping byte-order of sections containing BPF insns.
