    \brief Example: bit-vector merge
 
    Merge operation is an equivalent of logical OR, except 
    it destroys the argument. This is done to more efficiently 
    transfer the information to the target vector by re-assigning
    memory blocks, instead of doing allocation, copy and logical OR.
 
    After merge the argument vector will have undefined content, so
    it is better to clear or destroy it.
 
    Typical use case is to merge vectors after some multi-threaded
    partitioned processing.
