We really want to hash pairs of directly-hashable data as directly

hashable data. This matters when we have pair<T*, U*> as a key, which is
quite common in DenseMap, etc. To that end, we need to detect when this
is safe. The requirements on a generic std::pair<T, U> are:

1) Both T and U must satisfy the existing is_hashable_data trait. Note
   that this includes the requirement that T and U have no internal
   padding bits or other bits not contributing directly to equality.
2) The alignment constraints of std::pair<T, U> do not require padding
   between consecutive objects.
3) The alignment constraints of U and the size of T do not conspire to
   require padding between the first and second elements.

Grow two somewhat magical traits to detect this by forming a pod
structure and inspecting offset artifacts on it. Hopefully this won't
cause any compilers to panic.

Added and adjusted tests now that pairs, even nested pairs, are treated
as just sequences of data.

Thanks to Jeffrey Yasskin for helping me sort through this and reviewing
the somewhat subtle traits.
