memo: BitManipulation class
I see that class (it it will ever implemented) as the "backend" of this BitField class as you can see with the examples I've posted here: https://github.com/dotnet/corefxlab/issues/1085#issuecomment-272172817 it will become really complex when you have to use it for more that one bit!
The most important fact in the corefx#12425 is:
ReadByte/ReadInt16/ReadInt32 => BEXTR (possibly)
I want to use the BEXTR instruction which executes (src >> start) & ((1 << len)-1) in a single instruction.
Well but the generation of these ASM instruction should be AOT / JIT intrisics that probably that BitManipulation class will generate in future or your idea is to P/Invoke in Assembler in our library already?
This is just a memo. I guess these methods might be done by JIT intrinsics like System.Numerics.Vectors. I will use them if and only if the JIT-intrinsic version is released.
