* A pearson hash is a non-cryptographically secure hashing function that
* is very light on resources, very fast, and produces a single byte
* as it's output. It is strongly dependant on every byte in the input,
* which means that it's a good choice for adding to short messages to
* ensure that the contents of the messages are unchanged.
*
* Pearson hash is named for it's inventor Peter K. Pearson who described
* it in his article "Fast hashing of variable-length text strings"
* published in 1990 by ACM. I haven't read it, because you have to pay to
* get a copy :-P
