An optimization for std.bitmanip.BitArray: when BitArray.length <=
(size_t.sizeof * 8), then BitArray.ptr stores the bit themselves (so ptr is in
a union with a size_t).

If the array of bits is short, this saves a GC allocation, increasing
performance and reducing the amount of memory used and garbage produced.
