tests: Skip device errors known to fail in Big Endian archs

meson: Do not support drivers known to fail in Big Endian archs

When building in big endian architectures some device tests will fail, as per this we're pretty sure that most of the drivers are not ready to work in big-endian architectures. Since we're aware of this, better to just stop supporting those drivers instead of having each distribution to handle the problem.

So, add a list of supported drivers that is filled depending the architecture type we're building on. Keep continue building those drivers since we want to at least test-build them, but do not expose them as libfprint drivers, so if a device in the system uses any of them will be ignored.

At the same time, we keep track of the problem, so that we can fix the drivers.
