----------------------------------------
Feature #8158: lightweight structure for loaded features index
https://bugs.ruby-lang.org/issues/8158#change-70465

* Author: funny_falcon (Yura Sokolov)
* Status: Closed
* Priority: Normal
* Assignee: nobu (Nobuyoshi Nakada)
* Target version: 
----------------------------------------
Use lightweight structure for loaded_features index:

- use hand made simple hash structure, which uses only one memory chunk,
- do not store feature name string, only hash of it, since loaded_feature_path
  will recheck feature name on hash collision
- use single linked lists instead of arrays for storing features indices.
- store this lists inside one array, using array's indices as a reference.

While startup speedup improvement is relatively small compared current implementation,
this one does not need any Ruby Objects at all, so that there is no presure on GC.
