Certain core classes such as Integer use built-in hash calculations and
do not call the #hash method when used as a hash key.
So if you override, say, Integer#hash it won't be used from rb_hash_aref
and similar. This avoids method lookups in many common cases.
This commit uses the same optimization in rb_hash, a method used
internally and in the C API to get the hash value of an object. Usually
this is used to build the hash of an object based on its elements.
Previously it would always do a method lookup for 'hash'.
This is primarily intended to speed up hashing of Arrays and Hashes,
which call rb_hash for each element.
Use faster any_hash logic in rb_hash
