The old 'HashTable' type is now the union of the other 3 hash types.
- all operations that used to work on 'HashTable's still work,
but some now have more specific outputs
- `#hash` literals have type `ImmutableHash`
- `immutable?` and `hash-weak?` are filters
- `Mutable-` and `Weak-` hashes have corresponding `Top` types, `HashTableTop` is now a union
- the contact for `(U (Immutable-Hash K1 V1) (Mutable-Hash K2 V2))` is ONE `hash/c`
Minor notes:
- renamed internal identifiers containing 'Hashtable' to all use 'HashTable'
- add Racket guide/reference 'secref' functions
This is used for functions with a single argument imported with
`require/typed`, and avoids unneccessary checks. This produces a
3x speedup on the following benchmark:
#lang racket/base
(module m racket/base
(provide f)
(define (f x) x))
(module n typed/racket/base
(require/typed
(submod ".." m)
[f (-> Integer Integer)])
(time
(for ([x (in-range 1000000)])
(f 1) (f 2) (f 3) (f 4))))
(require 'n)
on top of the previous improvment from using `unsafe-procedure-chaperone`
and `procedure-result-arity`.
When exporting row polymorphic functions from TR, just
use absent clauses to ensure that TR won't accidentally
try to add pre-existing fields/methods. No sealing is
needed because the typechecker enforces parameteric use
of the class.
