Let's add a `# Safety` section with the invariant that `T` is a power of
2.
Maybe we should even have an `Int` trait for the different integer types
that we constrain `T` to.

We also probably want an `unsafe new_unchecked(v: $t) -> Self`. It can
still use a `debug_assert!` to verify the value.

Since this type is `Copy`, we should use `self` here instead of `&self`.
Why not add
if !self.0.is_power_of_two() {
unsafe { ::core::hint::unreachable_unchecked() }
}
here?

And then use `self.value()` here instead?
(we could even use `self.value() - 1`, since the optimizer can remove
the overflow check: https://godbolt.org/z/nvGaozGMW but wrapping_sub is
fine. The optimizations will most likely be more useful in other
arithmetic with `.value()`)

Can't these traits also be implemented using the derive macros?
