feat(rustdoc-json-types): introduce rustc-hash feature This allows the public `rustdoc-types` crate to expose this feature easily and allows consumers of the crate to get the performance advantages from doing so. The reasoning for this was discussed on [Zulip][1] Changes: - Make `rustc-hash` optional but default to including it - Rename all occurrences of `FxHashMap` to `HashMap`. - Feature gate the import and rename the imported `FxHashMap` to `HashMap` - Introduce a type alias `FxHashMap` which resolves to the currently used `HashMap` (`rustc_hash::FxHashMap` or `std::collections::HashMap`) for use in `src/librustdoc`. [1]: https://rust-lang.zulipchat.com/#narrow/channel/266220-t-rustdoc/topic/rustc-hash.20and.20performance.20of.20rustdoc-types **extra context from the zulip thread:** - `@obi1kenobi` requested benchmarks of the switch to `rustc-hash` - I benchmarked switching `rustdoc-types` to `rustc-hash` which yielded a ~300ms improvement to `cargo-semver-checks`'s index building step (this step is done twice so the improvements are ~150ms per index). - The benchmarks were presented in Zulip and people were in favor of introducing `rustc-hash` to the public `rustdoc-types` crate. - There were differing opinions on how to introduce the dependency: 1. "Hard" dependency: remove use of `std::collections::HashMap` in favor of `FxHashMap`. 2. "Soft" dependency: make optional and introduce a feature then enable/disable it by default (this PR). 3. ~~Make `rustdoc-types` generic and expose the `RandomState`~~ (a lot of work & complexity for little gain over a feature gate). `@obi1kenobi` and I prefer the feature gate so that is what I am adding here. My reasons for the preference are: - `cargo-semver-checks` is especially perf sensitive, we don't expect people to care about ~150ms extra time when reading in a 500MB file (the size of the sample we used for benchmarking). - Keeping `rustdoc-types` lean by having its only direct dependency be `serde` is nice for the general consumer of the crate. - `rustc-hash` is not HashDOS resistant (but it is questionable whether `rustdoc-types` would be used on adversarial inputs). r? `@aDotInTheVoid` |

This is the main source code repository for Rust. It contains the compiler, standard library, and documentation.
Why Rust?
-
Performance: Fast and memory-efficient, suitable for critical services, embedded devices, and easily integrate with other languages.
-
Reliability: Our rich type system and ownership model ensure memory and thread safety, reducing bugs at compile-time.
-
Productivity: Comprehensive documentation, a compiler committed to providing great diagnostics, and advanced tooling including package manager and build tool (Cargo), auto-formatter (rustfmt), linter (Clippy) and editor support (rust-analyzer).
