lib: rework bitmap_parse()
bitmap_parse() is ineffective and full of opaque variables and opencoded
parts. It leads to hard understanding and usage of it. This rework
includes:
- remove bitmap_shift_left() call from the cycle. Now it makes the
complexity of the algorithm as O(nbits^2). In the suggested approach
the input string is parsed in reverse direction, so no shifts needed;
- relax requirement on a single comma and no white spaces between
chunks. It is considered useful in scripting, and it aligns with
bitmap_parselist();
- split bitmap_parse() to small readable helpers;
- make an explicit calculation of the end of input line at the
beginning, so users of the bitmap_parse() won't bother doing this.
