compat/bswap.h: don't assume MSVC is little-endian
In 1af265f0 (compat/bswap.h: simplify MSVC endianness detection, 2020-11-08) we attempted to simplify code by assuming MSVC builds will be for little-endian machines, since only unusably old versions of MSVC supported big-endian MIPS and m68k architectures. However, it's possible that MSVC could be ported to build for a big-endian architecture again, so the simplification wasn't as future-proof as hoped. So let's go back to the old way of detecting MSVC, and then checking architecture from a list of little-endian architecture macros. Note that MSVC does not treat ARM64 as bi-endian, so we can safely treat it as little-endian.
