From: Mike Pall <mike>
Reported by Huang Haiyang.
(cherry picked from commit e4c7d8b38040518d42599eef8ddb5e67aa967a9c)
The bitfield of packed structure uses the original type size, which
leads to heap-buffer-overflow access on conversions.
This patch fixes it by adjusting the size of the bitfield container when
necessary.

* added the description and the test for the problem
