Description

Would it be possible to implement the Hash trait for RoaringBitmap? It looks like this can be derived automatically (via ArrayStore/BitmapStore, Store, and Container). Alternatively, perhaps something like the hash function in pyroaring would be more suitable?

Research direction

Start by reading the Hash-related implementations for ArrayStore, BitmapStore, Store, and Container, then compare the proposed behavior with the linked hash function in pyroaring. Decide which hashing approach fits RoaringBitmap and verify that the Hash trait is implemented consistently for the bitmap.
