jive5ab dynamic channel extractor doesn't like word size > 64 #19

A certain FranzK reports:

Our VDIF has 2 pols 64 channels (8+8) bits. That amounts to 2048 bits per time sample/word. jive5ab doesn't like that at all:

jive5ab/src/dynamic_channel_extractor.cc@118 assertion [inputincrement_bits<=64] fails 2048 is too large.
maximum supported is 64

when trying to do bitmongering on that kind of data
