Bit Packing Library

Library for bit-packing generic and specific values pertinent to Cron-Fi TWAMM into storage-slots efficiently (both for gas use and contract size).

_Many custom representations are used herein (i.e. non native word lengths) and there are a number of explicit checks against the maximum of these non native word lengths. Furthermore there are unchecked operations (this code targets Solidity 0.7.x which didn't yet feature implicit arithmetic checks or have the 'unchecked' block feature) in this library for reasons of efficiency or desired overflow. Wherever they appear they will be documented and accompanied with one of the following tags: - #unchecked - #overUnderFlowIntended Identified risks will be accompanied and described with the following tag: - #RISK

Generic shifting methods were eschewed because of their additional gas use. Conventions in the methods below are as follows:

 Suffixes:

 - The suffix of a variable name denotes the type contained within the variable.
   For instance "uint256 _incrementU96" is a 256-bit unsigned container representing
   a 96-bit value, _increment.
   In the case of "uint256 _balancerFeeDU1F18", the 256-bit unsigned container is
   representing a 19 digit decimal value with 18 fractional digits. In this scenario,
   the D=Decimal, U=Unsigned, F=Fractional.

 - The suffix of a function name denotes what slot it is proprietary too as a
   matter of convention. While unchecked at run-time or by the compiler, the naming
   convention easily aids in understanding what slot a packed value is stored within.
   For instance the function "unpackFeeShiftS3" unpacks the fee shift from slot 3. If
   the value of slot 2 were passed to this method, the unpacked value would be
   incorrect.

 Bit-Numbering:

 - Bits are counted starting with the least-significant bit (LSB) from 1. Thus for
   a 256-bit slot, the most-significant bit (MSB) is bit 256 and the LSB is bit 1.

 Offsets:

 - Offsets are the distance from the LSB to the desired LSB of the word being
   placed within a slot. For instance, to store an 8-bit word in a 256-bit slot
   at bits 16 down to 9, an offset of 8-bits should be specified.

 Pairs

 - The following methods which operate upon pairs follow the convention that a
   pair consists of two same sized words, with word0 stored above word1 within
   a slot. For example, a pair of 96-bit words will be stored with word0
   occupying bits 192 downto 97 and word1 occupying bits 96 downto 1. The following
   diagram depicts this scenario:

         bit-256     bit-192      bit-96      bit-1
            |           |            |           |
            v           v            v           v

      MSB < I    ???   II   word0   II   word1   I > LSB

                       ^            ^
                       |            |
                    bit-193      bit-97_
