Thanks for this.

BTW, I was going to ask if you benchmarked the much simpler
simple_move_bits() version against the more complicated version here,
but I just ran it myself; the simple version performed about 10x slower
when testing on my PC. So I guess that can justify some extra
complexity!

Other than my comment about move vs. copy, I think this looks good
enough.
