https://github.com/bitcoin-core/secp256k1/pull/787 moves endianness detection from autotools to the C code, which seems doable on modern platforms, and simplifies getting things right on autotools-less environments.
As libsecp256k1 doesn’t (yet) have MSVC-based ci, I’m (ab)using Bitcoin Core’s for this change.
