This commit enables the spacing-pseudoc test for the BPF assembler, which was previously disabled in the test suite configuration (bpf.exp). Additionally, it corrects a byte order mismatch in the test’s input file (spacing-pseudoc.d), changing it from big-endian (-EB) to little-endian (-EL) to align with the expected encodings and the test file’s name. With these fixes, the test now passes and validates the flexible spacing rules for BPF instructions in the pseudo-C dialect.
