Maybe it makes sense to provided a module covering all the stdbit.h
functions?

I can see a program wanting a majority/all of them and in that case it
might be nicer just to import a single module.

Also, should these functions be used to implement the count-* versions
used previously and ffs, ffsl, ffsll? That way any optimization
wizardry can be dealt with in a single place and benefit them all.
