// Package gcprog implements an encoder for packed GC pointer bitmaps,
// known as GC programs.
//
// Program Format
//
// The GC program encodes a sequence of 0 and 1 bits indicating scalar or pointer words in an object.
// The encoding is a simple Lempel-Ziv program, with codes to emit literal bits and to repeat the
// last n bits c times.
//
// The possible codes are:
//
// 00000000: stop
// 0nnnnnnn: emit n bits copied from the next (n+7)/8 bytes, least significant bit first
// 10000000 n c: repeat the previous n bits c times; n, c are varints
// 1nnnnnnn c: repeat the previous n bits c times; c is a varint
//
// The numbers n and c, when they follow a code, are encoded as varints
// using the same encoding as encoding/binary's Uvarint.
//
