Description

We have encodings that have names like:

X-DFDL-USASCII-6-BIT-PACKED, defined to be bitOrder LSBF,

But we found we do in fact need the MSBF flavor, so for symmetry reasons we now have:

X-DFDL-USASCII-6-BIT-PACKED-LSB-FIRST
and
X-DFDL-USASCII-6-BIT-PACKED-MSB-FIRST

the name that is non-specific should be deprecated - produce a warning.
