Convert java.nio.ByteOrder to an enum.
The class declaration is changed from `public class` to `public enum`.
Enums are `Comparable` so declare LITTLE_ENDIAN before BIG_ENDIAN so LITTLE_ENDIAN is less than BIG_ENDIAN.
The implementation is simplified, removing the constructor and explicit static fields.
Remove the override of `toString`; the javadoc provided by Enum is sufficient.
No changes to other classes or implementations are needed to pass Tier 1-3.
