	The packing.txt file was misplaced, as docs should be part of a documentation book, and not at the root dir. So, move it to the core-api directory and add to its index. Also, ensure that the file will be properly parsed and the bitmap ascii artwork will use a monotonic font.

2019-05-03	lib: Add support for generic packing operations	Vladimir Oltean
	This provides an unified API for accessing register bit fields regardless of memory layout. The basic unit of data for these API functions is the u64. The process of transforming an u64 from native CPU encoding into the peripheral's encoding is called 'pack', and transforming it from peripheral to native CPU encoding is 'unpack'.
