Introduces a Bits class that is able to handle a dynamic amount of bits, instead of the 64 bits stored in the ulong.

By embedding the milestone elements in a (virtual) scroll list, it will be possible to scroll them, which lifts the restriction of only allowing 60 milestones. Background: when playing extensive mod packs with lots of new/unknown technologies it is often hard to determine the research path to take. I find it convenient to add a lot (all) technologies to the milestone list, so YAFC shows which technologies I should research to unlock some item/recipe. This PR also fixes the original (probable) reason for this limitation: `ulong` can only hold 64 bits, and the Analyser uses bits to keep track of the dependencies of the milestones (and other objects). By replacing `ulong` with the custom build `Bits` class, this limitation is lifted. To be more confident that I did not break things, I first added a (simple) test suite for milestones. Then applied the changes and with minimal changed (had to use the `Bits` class now) the test suite still runs properly. Additionally, I made these changes more than a year ago (ShadowTheAge#203) and have been playing with loads/all (!) technologies of Pyanodons added to the milestones without issues:  Note that these (open) PRs are _very_ convenient combined with this feature: * ShadowTheAge#168 * ShadowTheAge#204
