Subject: pgsql: Simplify abbreviated key hashing during cardinality estimation

Simplify abbreviated key hashing during cardinality estimation

In the wake of commit 2a600a93c, Datums are 64-bit values, so
we no longer need to fold the abbreviated key to 32 bits before
hashing. Instead, use murmurhash64(), which is simpler and avoids
a function call. Also replace hash_uint32() with murmurhash32()
in related places.
