Detect the endianness with CMake

What is the bug

The endianness detection in src/util_hash.c produces a false result on macOS with GCC 13 or later. For whatever reason, #include <sys/param.h> does not define the __DARWIN_BYTE_ORDER and __DARWIN_LITTLE_ENDIAN macros when #define _POSIX_C_SOURCE 200112L. And that leads to the wrong values of the HASH_LITTLE_ENDIAN and HASH_BIG_ENDIAN macros. See also https://gitlab.dkrz.de/icon/icon-mpim/-/merge_requests/684#note_300951.

How do you fix it

The endianness detection is delegated to CMake.
