Specialize HashStable for [u8] slices

Particularly for ctfe-stress-4, the hashing of byte slices as part of the
MIR Allocation is quite hot. Previously, we were falling back on byte-by-byte
copying of the slice into the SipHash buffer (64 bytes long) before hashing a 64
byte chunk, and then doing that again and again; now we use the dedicated byte-slice write.
