Teach fasthash_accum to use platform endianness for bytewise loads
This function previously used a mix of word-wise loads and bytewise
loads. The bytewise loads happened to be little-endian regardless of
platform. This in itself is not a problem. However, a future commit
will require the same result whether A) the input is loaded as a
word with the relevent bytes masked-off, or B) the input is loaded
one byte at a time.
While at it, improve debuggability of the internal hash state.
