Description
https://lemire.me/blog/2018/03/08/iterating-over-set-bits-quickly-simd-edition/
Note: Implementing for conversion between bitmap and array is a good place to start. Doing it over a lazy iterator will be more challenging.

Research direction
Read the linked SIMD bit-iteration article first, then inspect the bitmap-to-array and array-to-bitmap conversion paths mentioned in the issue. A first milestone is a vectorized conversion implementation; lazy-iterator support is explicitly more challenging, so confirm the intended scope before proceeding.
