[RFC PATCH v2 1/2] objtool: x86 instruction decoder and big endian cross compiles

[Vasily Gorbik]

From: Martin Schwidefsky <schwidefsky@xxxxxxxxxx>

Make the x86 instruction decoder of the objtool usable on big endian
machines. This is useful for compile tests on non x86, big endian
hardware.

Co-developed-by: Vasily Gorbik <gor@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ gor: more endianness problems findings fixes / rebasing ]
