Add out-of-bounds assertions for setters #9

Closed Robbepop closed 5 years ago

Robbepop commented 5 years ago

Setting value through the generated set_* methods of #[bitfield] structs is currently unchecked. So for some bit specifiers users could potentially insert invalid values with the unwanted effect of them being cut-off.

We should make set_* method panic upon out-of-bounds inputs.
