lib: rework bitmap_parse()
bitmap_parse() is ineffective and full of opaque variables and opencoded
parts.  It leads to hard understanding and usage of it.  This rework
includes:

- remove bitmap_shift_left() call from the cycle.  Now it makes the
  complexity of the algorithm as O(nbits^2).  In the suggested approach
  the input string is parsed in reverse direction, so no shifts needed;

- relax requirement on a single comma and no white spaces between
  chunks.  It is considered useful in scripting, and it aligns with
  bitmap_parselist();

- split bitmap_parse() to small readable helpers;

- make an explicit calculation of the end of input line at the
  beginning, so users of the bitmap_parse() won't bother doing this.
