    runtime: a better fallback hash · cda0ea1c
    Keith Randall authored
    For arm and powerpc, as well as x86 without aes instructions.
    Contains a mixture of ideas from cityhash and xxhash.
    
    Compared to our old fallback on ARM, it's ~no slower on
    small objects and up to ~50% faster on large objects.  More
    importantly, it is a much better hash function and thus has
    less chance of bad behavior.
    
    Fixes #8737
