hash: add explicit u32 and u64 versions of hash
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The 32-bit version is more efficient (and apparently gives better hash
results than the 64-bit version), so users who are only hashing a 32-bit
quantity can now opt to use the 32-bit version explicitly, rather than
promoting to a long.
