hash.c: improve performance with quadratic probing

Replaces the linear probing collision resolution strategy with quadratic
probing. This change significantly improves hash table performance, especially
in high-collision scenarios, by mitigating the primary clustering issue
inherent in linear probing.

The new probing sequence, (step^2 + step) / 2, guarantees that every slot is
visited exactly once in a power-of-two-sized table.

Benchmark results on a high-collision test case show a ~9x improvement in both
insertion and lookup times.
