See attached.

As it turns out, there's one "deprecated" function which is not a
SRFI-60 name: bit-extract.  The SRFI-60 equivalent is called
bit-field.  (Both are equivalent to R6RS bitwise-bit-field.)

Of the non-deprecated Kawa functions, all but logop and logtest are
mandated by R6RS (logtest is in SRFI-60 but has no equivalent in R6RS).
Of the R6RS functions, five of them also appear in SRFI-60 with the
same name: bitwise-not, bitwise-and, bitwise-ior, bitwise-xor, and
bitwise-if.  They all also have alternate names in SRFI-60 (lognot,
logand, logior, logxor, bitwise-merge).


I put in a SRFI-60 section as you suggested.  For now, I marked the
functions which are (old) builtins as such, with language saying that
the rest are available via (require 'srfi-60) or (import (srfi :60)).

I left the "deprecated" subsection there, but it only contains
bit-extract now.  It probably makes sense to just get rid of that
function, but that feels like it should be a separate commit.

BTW here's an org-mode table I made while figuring all this stuff out.
