Finish conversion.hpp cleanup after name changes. conversion_test.cpp return-by-value tests reorganized and passing. UTD and in-place tests still to come. Add doc/bikeshed.txt to keep record of naming rationale.

Key points:
* These names are defined in a user namespace as customization points to be found by
ADL, and so cannot depend on the enclosing namespace name to signal readers that they
are related to endianness.
* These functions are rarely called directly by user code, which is more likely to use
the various conditional functions instead. So explicitness is more important than
brevity.

reverse [1] (adjective): opposite or contrary to a previous or normal condition <reverse order>
reverse [2] (verb) : to change (something) to an opposite state or condition
swap (verb) : to give something to someone and receive something in return : to trade or exchange (things)
flip (verb)
: to turn (something) over by throwing it up in the air with a quick movement
: to cause (something) to turn or turn over quickly
: to move (something) with a quick light movement
