Use bfd_generic_verify_endian_match() and fix it to only check when endianness

is known.

+       * libbfd.c (_bfd_generic_verify_endian_match): Compare endianess
+        only if it is known for both input and output bfds. Separate
+       error message strings as in some languages, it may be necessary
+       to change more than one place in the string to change between
+       'big' and 'little'. 
+
+       * elf32-ppc.c (ppc_elf_merge_private_bfd_data): Remove inline
+       endianess checks, call _bfd_generic_verify_endian_match() instead.  
+       
+       * elf32-mips.c (_bfd_mips_elf_merge_private_bfd_data): Likewise.  
+
+       * elf32-mcore.c (mcore_elf_merge_private_bfd_data): Likewise.  
+
+       * elf32-arm.h (elf32_arm_merge_private_bfd_data): Likewise. Verify
+       endianess before checking bfd flavours.

        * elflink.h (elf_link_output_extsym): Clear the visibility
