exec: introduce target_words_bigendian() helper
We currently have a virtio_is_big_endian() helper that provides the target
endianness to the virtio code. As of today, the helper returns a fixed
compile-time value. Of course, this will have to change if we want to
support target endianness changes at run-time.
Let's move the TARGET_WORDS_BIGENDIAN bits out to a new helper and have
virtio_is_big_endian() implemented on top of it.
This patch doesn't change any functionality.
