Implemented BitCount as an intrinsic. With unit test.
Rationale:
Recognizing this important operation as an intrinsic has
various advantages:
(1) having the no-side-effects/no-throw allows for
much more GVN/LICM/BCE.
(2) Some architectures, like x86_64, provide direct
support for this operation.
Performance improvements on X86_64:
CheckersEvalBench (32-bit bitboard): 27,210KNS -> 36,798KNS = + 35%
ReversiEvalBench (64-bit bitboard): 52,562KNS -> 89,086KNS = + 69%
