Switch to a more robust algorithm for hash combining
The current algorithm for hash combining behaves very poorly when hashing multiple short streams of small integers like (0,1,1,0,x) that only differ by a single large number x. These objects appear frequently in PDELab's ordering framework, and the resulting bad hash distribution really hurts the performance of the unordered containers in PDELab. This patch switches to an algorithm that is inspired by CityHash (see the source code comment) and has proven to be much more robust in testing.
