[PATCH] binutils: Use loops in `byte_get_*_endian` functions instead of switch cases.

Switch cases are used to read a value with a given size, but
these functions could be rewritten using a small loop instead,
avoiding code repetition.
This is already done in `byte_put_*_endian` functions.

binutils:

        * elfcomm.c: Use loop instead of switch case.
