Make libelf build on Solaris.

libelf has a number of Linuxisms. Fix them up.

Does Solaris define __BYTE_ORDER, __LITTLE_ENDIAN, __BIG_ENDIAN in its
byteorder.h? It might make sense to have the libelf code use those instead
of the non-underscore-prefixed versions, and have the public libelf header
assume the caller has pulled in the necessary headers rather than having at
the namespace itself. I think there must be some rationalisation possible
here, especially now that Xen itself has byteorder headers.

Ah, never mind. I took another route to clean things up. Avoiding that whole
area of namespace entirely seemed a good idea. :-)

No. It defines _LITTLE_ENDIAN and _BIG_ENDIAN as appropriate. There's no
.*BYTE_ORDER.
