Consider supporting BitFieldVec.get(Range<usize>)

[RagnarGrootKoerkamp]

It would be nice if this worked as a convenience when porting existing code from Vec. But it would probably involve quite some wrapper code so maybe not worth it.

So that would return some struct implementing BitFieldSlice, and giving a view on the range, right?

[RagnarGrootKoerkamp]

Yes exactly. Hence why it may be too much overhead.

[vigna]

Well it's certainly something that should be done. It's also likely we can get away with a support struct in BitFieldSlice. We're all in vacation now but I think it's a good idea.

The APIs we have now are the one we were able to write, but there's a lot of stuff missing.
