Hi people!

This patch adds support for specifying the "instruction endianness" (as
oppossed to data endianness) when calling cgen_cpu_open.

This is part of a bigger work to properly support arches like BPF, where
the endianness of the instruction is different to the endianness of the
contents of the instruction's fields.

The accompanying patch for opcodes will be sent to
binutils@sourceware.org today.  This CGEN patch will have to be applied
first though.

OK for master?

	* desc-cpu.scm (/gen-cpu-open): Support passing the instruction
	endianness to cgen_cpu_open.
