Switch to josharian/native for native endian?

[bradfitz]

@hugelgupf, any chance this repo could switch to using https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/josharian/native

@josharian and I are trying to reduce the number of copies of this code in the Go ecosystem, per golang/go#57237

As of josharian/native#3 it has both a boolean const and a binary.ByteOrder var.

It also has a fallback to runtime-based detection if build tags get stale in the future.

If you're concerned about lacking control, I'm sure @josharian could grant you co-maintainership of the native repo.

Happy to send you a PR if you're cool with it. Or you can.

Oh, I guess we can't outright remove it, as it has a bunch of callers, like github.com/insomniacslk/dhcp/dhcpv4 etc.

But you could use the constant in a func init which should get compiled away to ~nothing.

And you could update the docs to point people at the native package?

Indeed I could, just say the word.

[hugelgupf]

No need for co-maintainership, I'm happy with this. Thanks!

If you go make a PR to update dhcp, I'll be happy to approve that as well.
