fb: add support for foreign endianness
Add support for the framebuffers with non-native endianness. This is done via FBINFO_FOREIGN_ENDIAN flag that will be used by the drivers. Depending on the host endianness this flag will be overwritten by FBINFO_BE_MATH internal flag, or cleared. Tested to work on MPC8360E-RDK (BE) + Fujitsu MINT framebuffer (LE).
