Support for wide strings (UTF-16) in big endian encoding #6306

Description

@patacca

What is the feature you'd like to have?
Right now UTF-16 and UTF-32 strings are supported only in little endian format, it could be nice to have also an option to make them in big endian, as, to my knowledge, there are no workaround for that right now.

Are any alternative solutions acceptable?
I don't know if any workaround for this exist, right now I have to manually create a variable as a char[] of the size of the whole string. It's quite annoying having to do this every time and it doesn't really render very well in the decompilation.

Additional Information:
It should be very easy to reproduce. Here an example screenshot of a BE utf-16 string
