 RtClosureInspect: Fix inspecting Char# on 64-bit big-endian

 Char# is represented with a full machine word, whereas Char's Storable
 instance uses an Int32, so we can't just treat it like a single-element
 Char array. Instead, read it as an Int and use chr to turn it into a
 Char. This fixes Trac #11262.
