Replace dynahash with simplehash for the per-backend PrivateRefCountHash overflow table. Simplehash generates inlined, open-addressed lookup code, avoiding the per-call overhead of dynahash that becomes noticeable when many buffers are pinned with a CPU-bound workload. Motivated by testing of the index prefetching patch, which pins many more buffers concurrently than typical index scans.
