Faster access to PPField.lbproc

Recent tests of the fast-FieldsFile code have shown that a substantial fraction of the total file-to-Cube conversion process is taken up constructing instances of `BitwiseInt` for `field.lbproc`.

This work-in-progress PR demonstrates an alternative, compute-on-demand implementation which gets rid of the `BitwiseInt` overhead in the fast-FieldsFile case. Comments welcome.
Don't all these deprecations really belong in BitwiseInt, as it inherits inappropriate stuff from SplittableInt?
