We need to read the strings from the minidump files as little-endian,
regardless of the host byte order.
I definitely remember thinking about this case while writing the patch
(and in fact, I have implemented that for the "write" case), but somehow
I have ended up not implementing the byte swapping when reading the
data. This adds the necessary byte-swapping and should hopefully fix
test failures on big-endian bots.

Summary:
Strings in minidump files are stored as a 32-bit length field, giving
the length of the string in *bytes*, which is followed by the
appropriate number of UTF16 code units. The string is also supposed to
be null-terminated, and the null-terminator is not a part of the length
field. This patch:
- adds support for reading these strings out of the minidump file (this
implementation does not depend on proper null-termination)
- adds support for writing them to a minidump file
- using the previous two pieces implements proper (de)serialization of
the CSDVersion field of the SystemInfo stream. Previously, this was
only read/written as hex, and no attempt was made to access the
referenced string -- now this string is read and written correctly.
The changes are tested via yaml2obj|obj2yaml round-trip as well as a
unit test which checks the corner cases of the string deserialization
logic.

Summary:
This patch adds basic support for reading minidump files. It contains
the definitions of various important minidump data structures (header,
stream directory), and of one minidump stream (SystemInfo). The ability
to read other streams will be added in follow-up patches. However, all
streams can be read even now as raw data, which means lldb's minidump
support (where this code is taken from) can be immediately rebased on
top of this patch as soon as it lands.
As we don't have any support for generating minidump files (yet), this
tests the code via unit tests with some small handcrafted binaries in
the form of c char arrays.
