[Libguestfs] [nbdkit PATCH 4/7] nbd: Honor server global flags on little-endian

[Eric Blake]

In the nbd plugin, I forgot to swap the server's global flags into
host endian order before checking which flags the server had set. As a
result, on little-endian machines, we were always replying with cflags
of 0 instead of the intended mirroring of the supported server flags,
although fortunately it made no real difference up to now (we were
never sending any option other than NBD_OPT_EXPORT_NAME, so not
mirroring NBD_FLAG_FIXED_NEWSTYLE had no effect; not mirroring
NBD_FLAG_NO_ZEROES merely means a longer handshake; and the NBD
protocol does not yet define flag 0x100 or 0x200 to confuse
us). However, once we add code for NBD_OPT_GO, it becomes essential to
get it right.
