Emilio Cobos Álvarez bb460ea208 Bug 2046953 - Use HashBytes for hashing thin strings. r=sergesanspaille,arai,necko-reviewers,media-playback-reviewers,profiler-reviewers,alwu,canova,jesup,places-reviewers,Standard8
Hashing char by char is unnecessarily expensive, this hashes four bytes
at a time for those.

I did that rather than keeping size_t because HashBytes(uint64_t) ends
up in two AddUint32ToHash() anyways, and that way we avoid the python
re-implementation from depending on the word size of the target.

For wide strings, keep the current char-by-char version for now, but
reduce the amount of times this algorithm is duplicated and we rely on
it matching:

 * HashUTF8AsUTF16()
 * JS atoms
 * xpcom atoms.

Use constexpr to simplify the static atoms set up.
