Rollup merge of rust-lang#37229 - nnethercote:FxHasher, r=nikomatsakis
Replace FNV with a faster hash function. Hash table lookups are very hot in rustc profiles and the time taken within `FnvHash` itself is a big part of that. Although FNV is a simple hash, it processes its input one byte at a time. In contrast, Firefox has a homespun hash function that is also simple but works on multiple bytes at a time. So I tried it out and the results are compelling: ``` futures-rs-test 4.326s vs 4.212s --> 1.027x faster (variance: 1.001x, 1.007x) helloworld 0.233s vs 0.232s --> 1.004x faster (variance: 1.037x, 1.016x) html5ever-2016- 5.397s vs 5.210s --> 1.036x faster (variance: 1.009x, 1.006x) hyper.0.5.0 5.018s vs 4.905s --> 1.023x faster (variance: 1.007x, 1.006x) inflate-0.1.0 4.889s vs 4.872s --> 1.004x faster (variance: 1.012x, 1.007x) issue-32062-equ 0.347s vs 0.335s --> 1.035x faster (variance: 1.033x, 1.019x) issue-32278-big 1.717s vs 1.622s --> 1.059x faster (variance: 1.027x, 1.028x) jld-day15-parse 1.537s vs 1.459s --> 1.054x faster (variance: 1.005x, 1.003x) piston-image-0. 11.863s vs 11.482s --> 1.033x faster (variance: 1.060x, 1.002x) regex.0.1.30 2.517s vs 2.453s --> 1.026x faster (variance: 1.011x, 1.013x) rust-encoding-0 2.080s vs 2.047s --> 1.016x faster (variance: 1.005x, 1.005x) syntex-0.42.2 32.268s vs 31.275s --> 1.032x faster (variance: 1.014x, 1.022x) syntex-0.42.2-i 17.629s vs 16.559s --> 1.065x faster (variance: 1.013x, 1.021x) ``` (That's a stage1 compiler doing debug builds. Results for a stage2 compiler are similar.) The attached commit is not in a state suitable for landing because I changed the implementation of FnvHasher without changing its name (because that would have required touching many lines in the compiler). Nonetheless, it is a good place to start discussions. Profiles show very clearly that this new hash function is a lot faster to compute than FNV. The quality of the new hash function is less clear -- it seems to do better in some cases and worse in others (judging by the number of instructions executed in `Hash{Map,Set}::get`).
