+   * number which:
+   *
+   *  * is odd (because otherwise, all our hash values will be even)
+   *

+   *
+   * The rotation length of 5 is also arbitrary, although an odd number is again
+   * preferable so our hash explores the whole universe of possible rotations.
+   *
+   * Finally, we multiply by the golden ratio *after* xor'ing, not before.
+   * Otherwise, if |hash| is 0 (as it often is for the beginning of a message),
+   * the expression
+   *
+   *   (GoldenRatioU32 * RotateLeft(hash, 5)) ^ value
+   *
+   * evaluates to |value|.

+   *
+   *    [x * m (mod 2^32) for 0 <= x < 2^32]
+   *
+   * has no duplicate elements.  This means that multiplying by |m| does not
+   * cause us to skip any possible hash values.
+   *
+   * It's also nice if |m| has larger order mod 2^32 -- that is, if the smallest
+   * k such that m^k == 1 (mod 2^32) is large -- so we can safely multiply our
+   * hash value by |m| a few times without negating the multiplicative effect.
