bitmap: provide to_le/from_le helpers



Provide helpers to convert bitmaps to little endian format. It can be
used when we want to send one bitmap via network to some other hosts.

One thing to mention is that, these helpers only solve the problem of
endianess, but it does not solve the problem of different word size on
machines (the bitmaps managing same count of bits may contains different
size when malloced). So we need to take care of the size alignment issue
on the callers for now.
