Rename `BitSet` to `DenseBitSet` r? `@Mark-Simulacrum` as you requested this in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/134438#discussion_r1890659739 after such a confusion. This PR renames `BitSet` to `DenseBitSet` to make it less obvious as the go-to solution for bitmap needs, as well as make its representation (and positives/negatives) clearer. It also expands the comments there to hopefully make it clearer when it's not a good fit, with some alternative bitsets types. (This migrates the subtrees cg_gcc and clippy to use the new name in separate commits, for easier review by their respective owners, but they can obvs be squashed)
Please read the rustc-dev-guide chapter on Backend Agnostic Codegen.
