std: hash_map: optimize isFree/isTombstone (#10562)

- Add an `Metadata.isFree` helper method.
- Implement `Metadata.isTombstone` and `Metadata.isFree` with `@bitCast` then comparing to a constant. I assume `@bitCast`-then-compare is faster than the old method because it only involves one comparison, and doesn't require bitmasking.
- Summary of benchmarked changes (`gotta-go-fast`, run locally, compared to master):
  - 3/4 of the hash map benchmarks used ~10% fewer cycles
  - The last one (project Euler) shows 4% fewer cycles.
