 *    PostgreSQL generic bitmap set package
 *
 * A bitmap set can represent any set of nonnegative integers, although
 * it is mainly intended for sets where the maximum value is not large,
 * say at most a few hundred.  By convention, a NULL pointer is always
 * accepted by all operations to represent the empty set.  (But beware
 * that this is not the only representation of the empty set.  Use
 * bms_is_empty() in preference to testing for NULL.)
