I think this is fine.
Can you file a follow up jira to look at this again? I think we want to
remove the projection to unsafe row soon (before we ship this and persist
metadata that way). This should be decoupled from unsafe row ideally. For
example, if the row is (int, double, string): the generated hash function
shoudl be something like
int hash = seed;
hash = murmur3(getInt(0), hash)
hash = murmur3(getDouble(1), hash)
hash = murmur3(getString(2), hash)
return hash
This is likely not the currently computed hash value so can't defer this
for too long.
