hw/net/vmxnet3: Fix code to work on big endian hosts, too
Since commit ab06ec43 we test the vmxnet3 device in the pxe-tester, too (when running "make check SPEED=slow"). This now revealed that the code is not working there if the host is a big endian machine (for example ppc64 or s390x) - "make check SPEED=slow" is now failing on such hosts. The vmxnet3 code lacks endianness conversions in a couple of places. Interestingly, the bitfields in the structs in vmxnet3.h already tried to take care of the *bit* endianness of the C compilers - but the code missed to change the *byte* endianness when reading or writing the corresponding structs. So the bitfields are now wrapped into unions which allow to change the byte endianness during runtime with the non-bitfield member of the union. With these changes, "make check SPEED=slow" now properly works on big endian hosts, too.
