Description

See the discussion in https://github.com/dotnet/coreclr/pull/11233 for more details.

These bitsets currently have no checks to ensure that the epoch in which a bitset was created matches the epoch in which it is being used. Depending on the actual representation and the operation, mismatching epochs can have a variety of harmful effects as they can cause out-of-bounds reads or writes.

@BruceForstall writes

Ideally, we would implement a DEBUG ShortLong representation bitset that also carried epoch along with every bitset, and asserted that operations between two bitsets were in the same epoch.

Which seems like a good suggestion.
