Fix for BUG782: vnc server issue in mips

Bug 782 is that x86 vnc client does not work with vnc server in qemumips.

the root cause is that x11vnc server's word endian is wrong in qemumips.

mips linux is bigendian, while x86 linux is little endian, so there should be endian convention between the vnc client/server. the code does have the endian convertion logic and the logic works well in most case. the only issue is that in vncserver mips compiling, there is missing flag "-DLIBVNCSERVER_WORDS_BIGENDIAN", thus the vncserver in mips has wrong endian.

Adding the flag can fix this issue.

linux mips is big endian, so need "LIBVNCSERVER_WORDS_BIGENDIAN" flag for mips compilling.

this patch fix bug [YOCTO #782]

Good observation. I take more look, and find although AC_C_BIGENDIAN is used in autocof, the src code unfortunately did not use the generated WORDS_BIGENDIAN, instead, it use LIBVNCSERVER_WORDS_BIGENDIAN, so that is the reason why AC_C_BIGENDIAN has no effect.

in the case, the more elegant fix seems replacing LIBVNCSERVER_WORDS_BIGENDIAN with WORDS_BIGENDIAN. i will have a try.
