ISO C 23 <stdbit.h> - call for volunteer

Hi all,

ISO C 23 specifies a new header file for bit-manipulation operations,
<stdbit.h> [1][2].

Without Gnulib, programs who wish to use this API would have to wait
until all target platforms have implemented it; this can easily take
10 years. With Gnulib, programs can start using the API right away,
as soon as Gnulib has it.

Would you like to implement it for Gnulib? This is about two weeks
of work, and would give you practice with the coding patterns for
header files, functions, and autoconf macros. We are looking for a
volunteer.

If you would like to implement it, please speak up. We will give you
advice and support.

Bruno
