Issue Description:
In CFSTR(cStr), the 32-bit _length field is aliased with __CFString.notInlineImmutable1.length which is a signed long. This is incorrect on Linux on System z (big endian) where long is 8 bytes (64 bits) long. The length value will be padded on the right which works on little endian but it is 2^32 times larger than it should be on big endian system.
Also on big endian system, CFSTR(cStr) should initialize _base._cfinfo with {0x00, 0x00, 0x07, 0xc8}.
