Willy Tarreau 3e31e2927c DEV: phash: add a trivial perfect hash generator for integers
We have a few places where we're checking many status codes. The sets
are so small that just a multiply, a shift and an optional xor are
sufficient to turn that into a smaller set. The program used to produce
them is hackish as it allows to easily fiddle with various operations
manually and experiment by brute-forcing a pair of integers for the
mul and the xor. It also supports producing an incomplete table that
gives an easier modulo operation. Let's commit it as-is so that it can
be reused later (e.g. if new status codes are introduced for example).

/* Brute-force based perfect hash generator for small sets of integers. Just
* fill the table below with the integer values, try to pad a little bit to
* avoid too complicated divides, experiment with a few operations in the
* hash function and reuse the output as-is to make your table. You may also
* want to experiment with the random generator to use either one or two
* distinct values for mul and key.
