This is a follow-up to #<!-- -->156140, which deprecated one form of write.

We have two forms of read:

  template <typename value_type, std::size_t alignment>
  [[nodiscard]] inline value_type read(const void *memory, endianness endian)

  template <typename value_type, endianness endian, std::size_t alignment>
  [[nodiscard]] inline value_type read(const void *memory)

The difference is that endian is a function parameter in the former
but a template parameter in the latter.

This patch streamlines the code by migrating the use of the latter to
the former while deprecating the latter.
