WEBRTC_ARCH_*, PPC and environment variable?

[th0ma7]

Context

Using SynoCommunity spksrc framework and looking into migrating to newer python.
The framework automatically build for multiple-archs.
Part of my current PR I'm trying to reduce the usage local patches.
PR: SynoCommunity/spksrc#4998
Checks: https://github.com/SynoCommunity/spksrc/runs/4576241935?check_suite_focus=true

Specific

It happens that we currently patch the code to define WEBRTC_ARCH_LITTLE_ENDIAN
Another method would be #41 but that isn't possible as we are batch processing all cross-compiled requirements with a generic pip call.

Ask

Would it be possible to provide the ability to use exported environment variable like some others projects do?

export WEBRTC_ARCH_LITTLE_ENDIAN=TRUE
or
export WEBRTC_ARCH=LITTLE_ENDIAN
or anything else...

Thnx in advance.

The following solves my issue:

Also tried passing CFLAGS directly such as -D__PPC64__ -DWEBRTC_ARCH_64_BITS -DWEBRTC_ARCH_BIG_ENDIAN but that doesn't work. Only modifying the typedefs.h seems to work.

I just noticed, all the code is good to go and already in this repository! 3bd7613

Its just need another release to happen :)

@wiseman would it be possible to release a new version of the code as it already contains the fixes. Also making it available to pypi repository as well? Thnx in advance and happy holiday!

Modifying my requirements.txt file as a workaround solves the issue until a new version gets released.
