Fix inconsistencies between (a) the order in which functions and predicates
are declared, and (b) the order in which they are defined.
In most of these modules, either the order of the declarations
or the order of the definitions made sense, and I changed the other
to match. In a few modules, neither made sense, so I changed *both*
to an order that *does* make sense (i.e. it has related predicates
together).
In some places, put dividers between groups of related
functions/predicates, to make the groups themselves more visible.
In some places, fix comments or programming style, give some auxiliary
(non-exported) predicates better names, or delete some unneeded module
qualifications.
In some places, have the function form of a procedure forward
the work to the predicate form, instead of vice versa, where this is
more natural (usually because it allows the use of state variables).
However, this is the only kind of "algorithmic" change in this diff;
the rest is just moving code around.

Improvements for bitmap.m, to make it useable as a general container
for binary data.
library/bitmap.m:
runtime/mercury_bitmap.c:
runtime/mercury_bitmap.h:
Specialize the representation of bitmaps to an array of unsigned
bytes defined as a foreign type.
This is better than building on top of array(int) because it:
- is better for interfacing with foreign code
- has a more sensible machine-independent comparison order
(same as array(bool))
- avoids storing the size twice
- has more efficient copying, unification, comparison and tabling
(although we should probably specialize the handling of array(int)
and isomorphic types as well)
- uses GC_MALLOC_ATOMIC to avoid problems with bit patterns that look
like pointers (although we should do that for array(int) as well)
XXX The code for the Java and IL backends is untested.
Building the library in grade Java with Sun JDK 1.6 failed (but
at least passed error checking), and I don't have access to a
copy of MSVS.NET. The foreign code that needs to be tested is
trivial.
Add fields `bit', `bits' and `byte' to get/set a single bit,
multiple bits (from an int) or an 8 bit byte.
Add functions for converting bitmaps to hex strings and back,
for use by stream.string_writer.write and deconstruct.functor/4.
bitmap.intersect was buggy in the case where the input bitmaps
had a different size. Given that bitmaps are implemented with
a fixed domain (lookups out of range throw an exception), it
makes more sense to throw an exception in that case anyway,
so all of the set operations do that now.
The difference operation actually performed xor. Fix it and
add an xor function.
library/version_bitmap.m:
This hasn't been fully updated to be the same as bitmap.m.
The payoff would be much less because foreign code can't
really do anything with version_bitmaps.
Add a `bit' field.
Deprecate the `get/2' function in favour of the `bit' field.
Fix the union, difference, intersection and xor functions
as for bitmap.m.
Fix comparison of version_arrays so that it uses the same
method as array.m: compare size then elements in order.
The old code found version_arrays to be equal if one was
a suffix of the other.

Rearrange the version array code in order to improve inlining

Shift some of the code from the foreign_code pragma into the
