/** \class StructHashFunction
 *
 *  \brief Generic hash function for an arbitrary struct (or class).
 *
 *  This regards the input key as a string of bytes, and applies a
 *  hash function similar to one that has been used in perl.  If the
 *  data in the input key has pointers to other classes, then the
 *  function will be hashing on the value of the pointer itself, not
 *  on the data it points to.  It is imagined that this function will
 *  be used more for structs (with fully exposed data) than for
 *  general classes.
