Use .as_slices() for a more efficient code path in VecDeque's Hash impl.
This still hashes the elements in the same order.
Before/after timing of VecDeque hashing 1024 elements of u8 and
u64 shows that the vecdeque now can match the Vec
(test_hashing_vec_of_u64 is the Vec run).

test test_hashing_u64 ... bench: 14,031 ns/iter (+/- 236) = 583 MB/s
test test_hashing_u8 ... bench: 7,887 ns/iter (+/- 65) = 129 MB/s
test test_hashing_vec_of_u64 ... bench: 6,578 ns/iter (+/- 76) = 1245 MB/s

test test_hashing_u64 ... bench: 6,495 ns/iter (+/- 52) = 1261 MB/s
