For X86 and X64 architectures, which permit unaligned loads and stores, unaligned little endian buffer and arithmetic types use regular loads and stores when the size is exact. This makes unaligned little endian buffer and arithmetic types significantly more efficient on these architectures.(Pull request from Jeremy Maitin-Shepard) Docs updated, but timing results have not yet been updated.

Finalize buffer and arithmetic decomposition. Finalize name changes. Finalize test cases. Remove cruft. Docs still to do.

Rename endian_buffer typedefs. New names a bit longer, but also a bit more explicit and more obviously related to endian_arithmetic typedefs.

Major renaming. Class "endian" becomes class "endian_arithmetic" to mimic the C++ standard's description of such types as "arithmetic types". Rename header accordingly. The convenience typedefs have been changed shorten aligned names, as they are often being, but keeping the unaligned type names relatively short via a simple "_ut" suffix.

Remove "operator value_type() const noexcept" from buffers. Make the buffer ctor explicit. Buffers were requested by people who do not want automatic conversions because they want full control over conversions, and are very concerned about "efficiency".
...
Add "operator value_type() const noexcept" to the endian arithmetic types. These types are used by people who do want fully automatic conversions. The arithmetic types need to be drop-in replacements for the built-in arithmetic types for these users.

Initial commit buffers.hpp and related infrastructure. A separate buffer class without arithmetic operators was requested during the formal review.
