fix several endianness issues in PE modules#1884

Conversation
Those were all bugs affecting big-endian architectures: - The length field in resources string was read without endianness correction, leading to the `name_string`, `language_string` and `type_string` in `pe.resources[*]` not being properly set. - `pe.size_of_optional_header` was not using the right size for endianness correction. - `pe.opthdr_magic` was not using the right size for endianness correction. - `pe.dll_characteristics` was not using the right size for endianness correction. - `pe.data_directories` was not correctly filled at all, due to not using the right size for endianness correction when reading `NumberOfRvaAndSizes`. - The `entrypoint` operator was not returning the right value, as the VirtualSize field was read without endianness correction. This operator is deprecated, but the fix is very trivial.
