Description:
The ndb_restore program has a set of special cases wrt endianess,
however these if-statements were incorrectly put in the code
so they would only be checked if data was in *datafile* not in *logfile*

How to repeat:
Run ndb_restore with logfile from different endianess with entries
using Timestamp/Datetime or blob-v1

Suggested fix:
Move checks into Twiddle-function which handles this for both data and log
