Add highway hash

There's a portable C version that will be easier to integrate but won't have the same performance as the SIMD-optimized one but still should give representative results for the quality of the hash if not the speed. I don't know the speed difference between the two, but for Go my assembly version with SIMD was 10x faster than the pure-Go version.

Is this a request that I add it? Or will you hack up a patch for me Damian? Yves

Either or both :D . I might be able to get to it this weekend, but otherwise I'm pretty busy.

Hi gents,

I was bored.

Let me know what you think.

@yves - For installing highwayhash, I had to sudo mv highwayhash/lib/* /usr/lib/ after getting it to build.

Cheers!
