These macros were converted from their C equivalent.

Hey all, I did not see any patch for this floating in the mailing list.

Please let me know your thoughts. This one should be rather trivial.

For better markdown rendering, you should use backtics on `BIT`.

Using `expr` here will allow things like `bit!(3 + 8)`. I am not sure if
we want that, is that the same behavior as in C?
If we don't want that, we can use `literal` instead.
I am not suggesting changing it, only if it makes sense.

Ditto here for `h <= l`.

This can probably be an example (with ``` and `assert!`), because then
we also test the macro already :)

Same question about `expr` vs `literal` here.

Would be nice to mention this in the documentation.
