[ovs-dev] [PATCH] check-structs: Disallow uint<N>_t because ovs_be<N> should always be used.

[Ben Pfaff]

The header files that check-structs checks should only contain big-endian
data, never native-endian data, so disallow uint<N>_t entirely.  (We had
a couple of mistakes in this area until recently.)

uint8_t is an obvious exception.
