map gbp papi: match endianess of f64
clib_net_to_host_f64, clib_host_to_net_f64 are now implemented as '=',
https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/20406/ set papi to match.
- all f64 api references are now wrapped with
clib_net_to_host_f64 or clib_host_to_net_f64.
IEEE f64 endianess is not defined. If clib_net_to_host_f64 and
clib_host_to_net_f64 are later defined in VPP as big-endian, it is
a single character change in the papi vpp_serializer.
Note: This breaks the api in a manner that would not be detected by
the flag day initiative. The scope is small. This only impacts map.api,
which applied the u64 transformation, while the gbp api uses '='.
The implementation of "=" raises issues for the papi socket implementation
if used between systems of differing endianess. See Vratko's comments.
- Added get_f64_endian_value() to api to allow client to verify endianess of f64's.
Type: fix
Depends-on: https://gerrit.fd.io/r/#/c/20484/
