endianness: Replace Boost macros with custom ones

Boost changed the macros for endianness identification in 1.69, and the
deprecation warning is a pretty noisy one during compilation. This
abstracts away the Boost macro, so we have two UHD macros,
UHD_BIG_ENDIAN and UHD_LITTLE_ENDIAN. They indicate big and little
endian byte order.
