Result into error in case of endianness mismatches

This commit implements the Byte Order (Endianness) recommendations we
could read from the Apache Arrow official specification (quoted here):

> _"At first we will return an error when trying to read a Schema
> with an endianness that does not match the underlying system."_

Resolves: apache#3459
