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.
