BSF - Bit Scan Forward (386+)

        Usage:  BSF     dest,src
        Modifies flags: ZF

        Scans source operand for first bit set.  Sets ZF if a bit is found
        set and loads the destination with an index to first set bit.  Clears
        ZF is no bits are found set.  BSF scans forward across bit pattern
        (0-n) while BSR scans in reverse (n-0).
