+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #1587187 +++

xxHash v0.7.3 is major evolution for xxh3 and xxh128, with a focus on speed and dispersion performance.

Changelist:

• perf: improved speed for large inputs (~+20%)
• perf: improved latency for small inputs (~10%)
• perf: s390x Vectorial code, by @easyaspi314
• cli: improved support for Unicode filenames on Windows, thanks to @easyaspi314 and @t-mat
• api: xxhash.h can now be included in any order, with and without XXH_STATIC_LINKING_ONLY and XXH_INLINE_ALL
• build: xxHash's implementation transferred into xxhash.h. No more need to have xxhash.c in the /include directory for XXH_INLINE_ALL to work
• install: created pkg-config file, by @bket
• install: VCpkg installation instructions, by @LilyWangL
• doc: Highly improved code documentation, by @easyaspi314
• misc: New test tool in /tests/collisions: brute force collision tester for 64-bit hashes
