Description

There is no need for a separate code path for big-endian platforms in putFloats and putDoubles in OnHeapColumnVector and OffHeapColumnVector. Since SPARK-26985 was fixed the values have been copied in native byte order so the code required to perform this operation can be the same on both little- and big-endian platforms.
