On second thought, I wonder whether it would be useful to migrate
bitmaps from multiple nodes to a single one.  But probably not, this
would only make sense for filters, really, and in such a case the
bitmaps should probably just be moved prior to migration.

(And I can’t imagine any other case.  When flattening backing chains,
the bitmaps from the dropped layers basically become useless.)
