parse_pack_header_option(): avoid unaligned memory writes
In order to recreate a pack header in our in-memory buffer, we cast the buffer to a "struct pack_header" and assign the individual fields. This is reported to cause SIGBUS on sparc64 due to alignment issues. We can work around this by using put_be32() which will write individual bytes into the buffer.
