redesign how containers are stored : move `typecodes` in tagged pointer, replace pointers by actual container values, so on

Unfortunately, I don't expect to do anything more for at least a week, maybe two. So the risk of merge conflicts is low. Packing the type code in the low-order...

redesign how containers are stored : move `typecodes` in tagged pointer, replace pointers by actual container values, so on

are you thinking to maintain a containers array per bitmap (perhaps kept ordered by key), or one shared by all bitmaps (presumably disordered, and using some freelist approach)?

@lemire Is there any reason to think that copy on write would usually be a big win? My impression is that it would have to come with awkward machinery for...

@lemire With one big containers array shared by all bitmaps, your dream of an efficient scan to find a single bitmap's cardinality may be hard to realize. Are there mmapping...
