lib/bitmap.c: make bitmap_parselist() thread-safe and much faster

Current implementation of bitmap_parselist() uses a static variable to
save local state while setting bits in the bitmap.  It is obviously wrong
if we assume execution in multiprocessor environment.  Fortunately, it's
possible to rewrite this portion of code to avoid using the static
variable.

It is also possible to set bits in the mask per-range with bitmap_set(),
not per-bit, as it is implemented now, with set_bit(); which is way
faster.

The important side effect of this change is that setting bits in this
function from now is not per-bit atomic and less memory-ordered.  This is
because set_bit() guarantees the order of memory accesses, while
bitmap_set() does not.  I think that it is the advantage of the new
approach, because the bitmap_parselist() is intended to initialise bit
arrays, and user should protect the whole bitmap during initialisation if
needed.  So protecting individual bits looks expensive and useless.  Also,
other range-oriented functions in lib/bitmap.c don't worry much about
atomicity.

With all that, setting 2k bits in map with the pattern like 0-2047:128/256
becomes ~50 times faster after applying the patch in my testing
environment (arm64 hosted on qemu).

The second patch of the series adds the test for bitmap_parselist().  It's
not intended to cover all tricky cases, just to make sure that I didn't
screw up during rework.
