ewah: support platforms that require aligned reads

The caller may hand us an unaligned buffer (e.g., because it
is an mmap of a file with many ewah bitmaps). On some
platforms (like SPARC) this can cause a bus error. We can
fix it with a combination of get_be32 and moving the data
into an aligned buffer (which we would do anyway, but we can
move it before fixing the endianness).
