Its design keeps evolving. See
https://github.com/Nicoshev/rapidhash/releases
It's great to see the design improving, but over time, this will lead to
code rot; versions that aren't widely used but would still have to live
in the standard library forever and be maintained.
Better to be maintained as an external dependency that applications can
opt into. Then, in a few years, if a version proves to be stable and
widely adopted, it could be considered for inclusion in the standard
library.

Basically everything that has a direct replacement or no uses left.
Notable omissions:
- std.ArrayHashMap: Too much fallout, needs a separate cleanup.
- std.debug.runtime_safety: Too much fallout.
- std.heap.GeneralPurposeAllocator: Lots of references to it remain, not
a simple find and replace as "debug allocator" is not equivalent to
"general purpose allocator".
- std.io.Reader: Is being reworked at the moment.
- std.unicode.utf8Decode(): No replacement, needs a new API first.
- Manifest backwards compat options: Removal would break test data used
by TestFetchBuilder.
- panic handler needs to be a namespace: Many tests still rely on it
being a function, needs a separate cleanup.

Uses the non rational solution of a quadratic, I made it work up to 256
bits, added Mathematica code in case anyone wants to verify the magic
constant.
integers between sizes 3...15 were affected by fatal bias, it is best to
make them pass through the generic solution.
Thanks to RetroDev256 & Andrew feedback.

In the parent commit, I handled odd bit sizes by upcasting and
truncating. However it seems the else branch is intended to handle
those cases instead, so this commit reverts that behavior.

also
* allow signed ints, simply bitcast them to unsigned
* handle odd bit sizes by upcasting and then truncating
* naming conventions
* remove redundant code
* better use of testing API

Before, the default bit mixer was very biased, and after a
lot of searching it turns out that selecting a better solution is hard.
I wrote a custom statistical analysis taylored for bit mixers in order
to select the best one at each size (u64/u32/u16), compared a lot of
mixers, and packaged the best ones in this commit.

XXH3 is the faster alternative to XXH64 which utilizes SIMD
when hashing large chunks of memory and similar mixing to
WyHash (64x64 -> 128 mul) for smaller inputs.

This is handy if you have a u32 and want a u32 and don't want to take a
detour through many layers of abstraction elsewhere in the std.hash
namespace.

Tests that only reference decls for the purpose of analyzing more tests
should be unnamed, otherwise trying to filter for just a referenced test
can become impossible depending on the names.

We already have a LICENSE file that covers the Zig Standard Library. We
no longer need to remind everyone that the license is MIT in every single
file.
Previously this was introduced to clarify the situation for a fork of
Zig that made Zig's LICENSE file harder to find, and replaced it with
their own license that required annual payments to their company.
However that fork now appears to be dead. So there is no need to
reinforce the copyright notice in every single file.

SipHash *is* a cryptographic function, with a 128-bit security level.
However, it is not a regular hash function: a secret key is required,
and knowledge of that key allows collisions to be quickly computed offline.
SipHash is therefore more suitable to be used as a MAC.
The same API as other MACs was implemented in addition to functions directly
returning an integer.
The benchmarks have been updated accordingly.
No changes to the SipHash implementation itself.

add SPDX license identifier
copyright ownership is zig contributors
|

-fgenerate-docs is replaced ith -femit-docs
-fno-emit-bin is added to prevent outputting binary

that's all this commit does. further commits will fix cli flags and
such.
