Remove bit-ordering test in configure.ac since we don't seem to use

this at compile time and it fouls up cross compilation.

cd-paranoia has tests at run-time. libcdio inherited this from
vcdimager which needs it in writing images. It is possible that when
libcdio does writing this may come back. Untill then, simplify.
