update isolate_highest_one for NonZero<T> ## Rationale Let `x = self` and `m = (((1 as $Int) << (<$Int>::BITS - 1)).wrapping_shr(self.leading_zeros()))` Then the previous code computed `NonZero::new_unchecked(x & m)`. Since `m` has exactly one bit set (the most significant 1-bit of `x`), `(x & m) == m`. Therefore, the masking step was redundant. The shift is safe and does not need wrapping because: * `self.leading_zeros() < $Int::BITS` because `self` is non-zero. * The result of `unchecked_shr` is non-zero, satisfying the `NonZero` invariant. if wrapping happens we would be violating `NonZero` invariants. why this micro optimization? the old code was suboptimal it duplicated `$Int`’s isolate_highest_one logic instead of delegating to it. Since the type already wraps `$Int`, either delegation should be used for clarity or, if keeping a custom implementation, it should be optimized as above.
