Title: djb2CaseInsensitiveHash may cause excessive probing with Abseil hash tables
Description: My colleagues who implemented the Abseil containers (@fowles and @sbenzaquen) mentioned that djb2CaseInsensitiveHash will likely cause excessive probing with absl::{flat,node}_hash_{set,map}. StringUtil uses this hash [1] in an absl::flat_hash_set [2]. Ideally this would be built on top of the absl::Hash framework [3] instead.
