In the calc_code_bit() function, we must find all powers of two beneath
the code bit number, *after* it's shifted by those powers of two. This
requires a loop to see where it ends up.
We can optimize it by starting at its most significant bit. This shaves
32% off the time, for a total of 67.6% shaved off of the original, naive
implementation.
