The Int128 is no longer a struct, reaching a python exception:
Python Exception <class 'gdb.error'> Attempt to extract a component of a value that is not a (null).:

Replace struct access with a cast to uint64[] instead.

Fixes:

v2:
 - try with old struct hi/lo fields first for compatibility
 - handle endianess in uint64[] case

Note: untested on other arch than x86_64
