[PATCH] gcov endianness

[Nathan Sidwell]

Hi,
This patch removes a bunch of endianness conversions from the gcov machinery.
As the gcov files are an internal interface for a particular compiler
version and target machine, it is simpler to use the endianness of the
cpu writing the file, and put some detection in the host-based reader
to deal with hosts & targets of different endianness. Unfortunately I'd
picked a magic number that was palindromic, so I changed that -- we'd
never released anything with the old magic number anyway.

booted & tested on i686-pc-linux-gnu.
