The code tries to find a codec in a list of codecs. For this it searches for a given prefix.
But the prefix is of type char16_t, which means 2 bytes per character instead of 1, as was compared here.
On big endian this created some false positives, as the order of bytes is different and some characters only
occupy "the first" byte, having the second null'ed out.
Noticed because of gtest: MediaMIMETypes.MediaCodecs
