I think this could use a v2: virBitmapSetBit and virBitmapGetBit should
get the same treatment for bounds checking.

Meanwhile, we already reject attempts to create a bitmap with SIZE_MAX
bits.  Therefore, since b is unsigned, we can safely avoid the && and
instead do the computation via a single comparison:

if (bitmap->size <= b)
    return -1;

For that matter, should virBitmapAlloc(0) return NULL, instead of it's
current behavior of allocating an (empty) bitmap?
