x86/insn: Fix vector instruction decoding on big endian cross-compiles
Running instruction decoder posttest on an s390 host with an x86 target
with allyesconfig shows errors. Instructions used in a couple of kernel
objects could not be correctly decoded on big endian system.

This is because in a few places instruction field bytes are set directly
with further usage of "value". To address that introduce and use a
insn_set_byte() helper, which correctly updates "value" on big endian
systems.
