ewah: implement `ewah_bitmap_is_subset()`Notice: this object is not reachable from any branch.

In order to know whether a given pseudo-merge (comprised of a "parents"
and "objects" bitmaps) is "satisfied" and can be OR'd into the bitmap
result, we need to be able to quickly determine whether the "parents"
bitmap is a subset of the current set of objects reachable on either
side of a traversal.

Implement a helper function to prepare for that, which determines
whether an EWAH bitmap (the parents bitmap from the pseudo-merge) is a
subset of a non-EWAH bitmap (in this case, the results bitmap from
either side of the traversal).

This function makes use of the EWAH iterator to avoid inflating any part
of the EWAH bitmap after we determine it is not a subset of the non-EWAH
bitmap. This "fail-fast" allows us to avoid a potentially large amount
of wasted effort.
