    ada: Tune hash function for cross-reference entries
    
    Tune the hash function that combines entity identifiers with source
    locations of where those entities are referenced. Previously the source
    location was multiplied by 2 ** 7 (i.e. shifted left by 7 bits), then
    added to the entity identifier, and finally divided modulo 2 ** 16 (i.e.
    masked to only use the lowest 16 bits). This hash routine caused
    collisions that could make some tests up to twice slower.
    
    With a large entity number the source location was only contributing few
    bits to the hash value. This large entity number might correspond to
    entity like Ada.Characters.Latin_1.NUL that occurs thousands of times in
    generated code.
