The ngx_hash_init() functions tries to build a hash by using a
varying number of buckets. The "size" variable corresponds to the
number of buckets we test at the current loop iteration. For each
size we iterate over all hash items to check how buckets will be
("key" is a bucket number for a given hash item, "test[key]"
stores how many bytes will be stored in the bucket).
