Don't try to fix up the JS and regexp bytecodes by byte-swapping opcodes, it's too error prone and has ever diminishing returns; there simply aren't many big endian targets left. It may or may not still be possible to run quickjs on big endian targets but that's no longer guaranteed. Fixes: quickjs-ng#1122

@bnoordhuis Will it be easier to have a separate BE-specific version? |
