An application built using glibc would expect __BYTE_ORDER to tell if
it should be compiled for BIG_ENDIAN or LITTLE_ENDIAN, whereas ccan uses
HAVE_LITTLE_ENDIAN and HAVE_BIG_ENDIAN for the same purpose.

Hence setting __BYTE_ORDER based on what CCAN provides will no longer
break the applications which check endianness the glibc way.
