This uses a manually-maintained list of compilers and with their endianness

name=llvm/Support/SwapByteOrder.h
  #if defined(__linux__) || defined(__GNU__) || defined(__HAIKU__) ||            \
      defined(__Fuchsia__) || defined(__EMSCRIPTEN__)
  #include <endian.h>
  #elif defined(_AIX)
  #include <sys/machine.h>
  #elif defined(__sun)
  /* Solaris provides _BIG_ENDIAN/_LITTLE_ENDIAN selector in sys/types.h */
  #include <sys/types.h>
  #define BIG_ENDIAN 4321
  #define LITTLE_ENDIAN 1234
  #if defined(_BIG_ENDIAN)
  #define BYTE_ORDER BIG_ENDIAN
  #else
  #define BYTE_ORDER LITTLE_ENDIAN
  #endif
  #elif defined(__MVS__)
  #define BIG_ENDIAN 4321
  #define LITTLE_ENDIAN 1234
  #define BYTE_ORDER BIG_ENDIAN
  #else
  #if !defined(BYTE_ORDER) && !defined(_WIN32)
  #include <machine/endian.h>
  #endif
  #endif

I personally find asking cmake the cleaner solution (it does introspection anyway, and endianness must be consistent with the rest of build environment), but I guess the LLVM community will be committed to maintain that list with all supported compilers and would ensure consistency with the rest of LLVM, I could use that if others prefer it.
