[patch 7/7] bitmap: add bitmap_copy_le()

bitmap_copy_le() copies a bitmap, putting the bits into little-endian
order (i.e., each unsigned long word in the bitmap is put into
little-endian order).

The UWB stack used bitmaps to manage Medium Access Slot availability,
and these bitmaps need to be written to the hardware in LE order.
