Description
The following optimization can be made to mod operations. This can be applied where applicable with a comment explaining the original operation for clarity
`n % x === n & (x-1)` when x is a power of 2 but bitwise AND is much faster

Research direction
No files, tests, or entry points are named. Search the Java code for modulo operations and identify cases where the divisor is a power of two, then verify that the suggested bitwise operation preserves behavior. Done means applicable cases use the optimization with a comment explaining the original operation and the relevant tests pass.
