The current code for encoding a netbios name converts each byte to a 16-bit
value and stores the result by casting a char* to u_short*, resulting in
alignment faults on strict-alignment platforms.
This change reimplements the encoding routine using only byte accesses to
memory. There is no particular reason to work with 16-bit values just
because the encoding process creates two bytes of output for every byte of
input. Working a byte at at time also avoids endian problems for big-endian
platforms.
