/*
 * fasthash as implemented here has two interfaces:
 *
 * 1) Standalone functions that take a single input.
 *
 * 2) Incremental interface. This can used for incorporating multiple
 * inputs. First, initialize the hash state (here with a zero seed):
 *
 * fasthash_state hs;
 * fasthash_init(&hs, 0);
 *
 * Next, accumulate input into the hash state.
 * If the inputs are of types that can be trivially cast to uint64, it's
 * sufficient to do:
 *
 * hs.accum = value1;
 * fasthash_combine(&hs);
 * hs.accum = value2;
 * fasthash_combine(&hs);
 * ...
 *
 * For longer or variable-length input, fasthash_accum() is a more
 * flexible, but more verbose method. The standalone functions use this
 * internally, so see fasthash64() for an example of this.
 *
 * After all inputs have been mixed in, finalize the hash and optionally
 * reduce to 32 bits. If all inputs are fixed-length, it's sufficient
 * to pass zero for the tweak:
 *
 * hashcode = fasthash_final32(&hs, 0);
 *
 * For variable length input, experimentation has found that SMHasher
 * fails unless we pass the length for the tweak. When accumulating
 * multiple varlen values, it's probably safest to calculate a tweak
 * such that the bits of all individual lengths are present, for example:
 *
 * lengths = len1 + (len2 << 10) + (len3 << 20);
 * hashcode = fasthash_final32(&hs, lengths);
 *
 * The incremental interface allows an optimization for NUL-terminated
 * C strings:
 *
 * len = fasthash_accum_cstring(&hs, str);
 * hashcode = fasthash_final32(&hs, len);
 *
 * By computing the length on-the-fly, we can avoid needing a strlen()
 * call to tell us how many bytes to hash.
