common/bit_field: Make BitField trivially copyable

This makes the class much more flexible and doesn't make performing
copies with classes that contain a bitfield member a pain.

Given BitField instances are only intended to be used within unions, the
fact the full storage value would be copied isn't a big concern (only
sizeof(union_type) would be copied anyways).

While we're at it, provide defaulted move constructors for consistency.
