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.

I'm not a maintainer so can't approve the patch, but for what it's
worth, this looks good to me.

Thanks,
Andrew

Sure, and it seems to have been anticipated.

Thanks.  I will push once the binutils stuff is also ready... found a
complication.

(Actually, the whole handling of endianness in both CGEN and binutils is
 a mess.  Trying to get some sense of it.)

Ok I think I got the binutils side nailed.  Will post the patches to
binutils@sourceware once regression testing finishes running, later
today.

After the binutils part is approved I will push the following (fixed)
version of the CGEN patch, to master:
