dpkg already does that, so every Debian machine already has the
ability to find this out.

pabs@chianamo:~$ dpkg-architecture | grep -i endian
DEB_BUILD_ARCH_ENDIAN=little
DEB_HOST_ARCH_ENDIAN=little

Unless your program does significantly more, I would suggest leaving
it out of Debian. If it does do significantly more, perhaps
determining all the characteristics on the wiki page below, then I
would suggest adding it to some existing package.
