[Bug 519263] [NEW] Calculates 16 bit values incorrectly

[Limpan]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: ghex

Expected GHex to calculate the 16 bit unsigned value to 512 when
selecting 0x0002 (little endian).

I have found that it matters if I select the higher byte first or the
lower byte first. It seems that GHex calculates the number of selected
bytes and then reads the bytes from where the pointer is at the moment.
I have attached a screen shot that depicts the miscalculation.
