This is second version of #880. Related issues are #944, #964.

In my environment(using default gembox, clang, x64),
total heap allocation till end of mrb_open() was reduced around 13kb (183514bytes to 170654bytes).

• Bytecode format now has endian field.
• mrbc has new option -E<endian>. Only effective with -B(C-func).
• Default for -E is "neutral", which means copy all iseq(same as current).
• In build_config, you can specify endian :little, or endian :big in each target. This value is used for -E option on running mrbc.
• Currently CRC are checked even for C-func. I would update to skip CRC check if it is OK.
• I do not have Big-endian device. Only little endian was tested.

test code.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

#include "mruby.h"

size_t total = 0;

void *myallocf(mrb_state *mrb, void *p, size_t size, void *ud){
    if (size == 0){
        free(p);
        return NULL;
    }else{
        //printf("alloc size=%ld, p=%p\n",size,p);
        total += size;
        void *ret = realloc(p, size);
        return ret;
    }
}

int main(int argc, const char * argv[])
{
    mrb_state *mrb = mrb_open_allocf(myallocf, NULL);
    printf("total : %zu bytes\n", total);
    mrb_close(mrb);

    return 0;
