Jason Evans 951f316470 Add treap implementation
Provide macros to generate a type-specific treap implementation and
various functions to operate on it. It uses obj_pool.h to store memory
nodes in a treap.  Previously committed nodes are never removed from
the pool; after any *_commit operation, it is assumed (correctly, in
the case of svn-fast-export) that someone else must care about them.

Treaps provide a memory-efficient binary search tree structure.
Insertion/deletion/search are about as about as fast in the average
case as red-black trees and the chances of worst-case behavior are
vanishingly small, thanks to (pseudo-)randomness.  The bad worst-case
behavior is a small price to pay, given that treaps are much simpler
to implement.

[db: Altered to reference nodes by offset from a common base pointer]
[db: Bob Jenkins' hashing implementation dropped for Knuth's]
[db: Methods unnecessary for search and insert dropped]
[rr: Squelched compiler warnings]
[db: Added support for immutable treap nodes]
[jn: Reintroduced treap_nsearch(); with tests]
