This patch reverts the use of `ByteArrayLittleEndian` in `StringLatin1`.
This use is the cause of a small (~1.5ms) startup regression in 22-b15. While a manageable startup regression in and of itself, the use of `VarHandles` in core utility classes brings an increased risk of bootstrap circularity issues, for example disqualifying the use of things like `Integers.toString` in some places.
Reverting this partially rolls back the performance improvement gained by JDK-8310929. It seems reasonable that the compiler can be enhanced to gain that loss back.
