tools: relocate-rela: Fix ELF decoding on big-endian hosts

The new ELF decoding logic assumed that the target binary has the same
endianness as the host, which broke building ARM64 firmware binaries on
big-endian machines.

This commit fixes the ELF64 decoding to be host-endianness-neutral, and
applies the same changes to the ELF32 decoding. It does not fix the
microblaze-specific dynamic symbol decoding.

It also corrects the functions used for byte swapping in rela_elf64()
and rela_elf32(). The result is the same, but semantically the code is
converting bytes read from a foreign-endianness file to host byte order.

Fixes: a1405d9cfedb ("tools: relocate-rela: Check that relocation works only for EM_AARCH64")
