- Introduced with the C++20 <bit> header
- The problem with __builtin_c(l|t)z() is that 0 as input has an
undefined result (*) and the code did not always check. The std::
versions do not have this issue.
- In some cases, we continue to use buildin_c(l|t)z(), (e.g. in
src/Common/BitHelpers.h) because the std:: versions only accept
unsigned inputs (and they also check that) and the casting would be
ugly.

First part, updated most UTF8, hashing, memory and codecs. Except
utf8lower and upper, maybe a little later.
That includes huge amount of research with movemask dealing. Exact
details and blog post TBD.
