Summary bitops-bitwise-and.js in SunSpider is misleading

I run the test, most time were spent on accessing a global variable (read and write): bitwiseAndValue. If we move the code into a function and declare bitwiseAndValue be a local, the execution is reduced from 72ms to 10ms. To make the benchmark name accurate, either it should be renamed to 'access' category as Maciej suggested, or move the code into a function and declare the varaible as a local.

We should fix this for SunSpider 2.0.
