The only reason we return an int is because we have to use a sentinel value to indicate "no bits found". The methods that these originated from `find_next`, `find_prev`, etc have always taken `unsigned` arguments even before I started tinkering on `BitVector`. Do you still think it's a good idea to change all of them?

+ int find_first_in(unsigned Begin, unsigned End) const {
+ if (Begin >= End)
return -1;

I suppose I should assert if `Begin > End`, but `Begin == End` should probably still just return -1 I think.
