Sergey B Kirpichev 52c01864c4 gh-145633: Refine notes on non-IEEE platforms (#145845) ...

* We don't specify what happens on non-IEEE platforms.
* Use rather PY_LITTLE_ENDIAN to get native endianness.
* Mention that unpack functions don't fail in CPython.
* Mention that PyFloat_Pack8 doesn't fail in CPython.
