// hash_mix for 64 bit size_t
//
// The general "xmxmx" form of state of the art 64 bit mixers originates
// from Murmur3 by Austin Appleby, which uses the following function as
// its "final mix":
//
//	k ^= k >> 33;
//	k *= 0xff51afd7ed558ccd;
//	k ^= k >> 33;
//	k *= 0xc4ceb9fe1a85ec53;
//	k ^= k >> 33;
//
// (https://github.com/aappleby/smhasher/blob/master/src/MurmurHash3.cpp)
//
// It has subsequently been improved multiple times by different authors
// by changing the constants. The most well known improvement is the
// so-called "variant 13" function by David Stafford:
//
//	k ^= k >> 30;
//	k *= 0xbf58476d1ce4e5b9;
//	k ^= k >> 27;
//	k *= 0x94d049bb133111eb;
//	k ^= k >> 31;
//
// (https://zimbry.blogspot.com/2011/09/better-bit-mixing-improving-on.html)
//
// This mixing function is used in the splitmix64 RNG:
// http://xorshift.di.unimi.it/splitmix64.c
//
// We use Jon Maiga's implementation from
// http://jonkagstrom.com/mx3/mx3_rev2.html
//
// 	x ^= x >> 32;
//	x *= 0xe9846af9b1a615d;
//	x ^= x >> 32;
//	x *= 0xe9846af9b1a615d;
//	x ^= x >> 28;
//
// An equally good alternative is Pelle Evensen's Moremur:
//
//	x ^= x >> 27;
//	x *= 0x3C79AC492BA7B653;
//	x ^= x >> 33;
//	x *= 0x1C69B3F74AC4AE35;
//	x ^= x >> 27;
//
