Support big-endian architectures #117

Description

@slp

According to the Virtio Specs, on non-legacy devices the various fields in the VirtQueue are stored with little-endian ordering, independently of the actual ordering the guest and the host are using.

In practice, this implies that to support big-endian machines, we need to do endianess conversions when needed.
