metagn ae9287c4f3 symmetric difference operation for sets via xor (#24286)
closes https://github.com/nim-lang/RFCs/issues/554

Adds a symmetric difference operation to the language bitset type. This
maps to a simple `xor` operation on the backend and thus is likely
faster than the current alternatives, namely `(a - b) + (b - a)` or `a +
b - a * b`. The compiler VM implementation of bitsets already
implemented this via `symdiffSets` but it was never used.

The standalone binary operation is added to `setutils`, named
`symmetricDifference` in line with [hash
sets](https://nim-lang.org/docs/sets.html#symmetricDifference%2CHashSet%5BA%5D%2CHashSet%5BA%5D).
An operator version `-+-` and an in-place version like `toggle` as
described in the RFC are also added, implemented as trivial sugar.
