These methods start at the starting_bit and return the first index after that point that is either a 0 (for scan0()) or a 1 (for scan1()). We definitely want to use camelCase instead of snake_case for the argument name, but while adjusting it should we also change the arg name? Maybe to something like startBitIdx?
