Description: In GearCity, we use a lot of hashmaps. These improve the performance of the game over what we used to have. However, GearCity is using the first iteration of STL's hashmaps. There is a faster way.
After moving to C++17, we'll have the opportunity to replace the STL hashmaps with The Parallel Hashmap. I used these in AeroMogul and saw a significant performance gain. I can't say what the exact performance implications would be in GearCity, but I suspect at least a 5 to 10% improvement in turn times.
Requirements: #314
Required By: None
Concerns: None
Eric's Opinion: The performance improvements in AeroMogul were so significant that I added bounties #313 and #314 to get this and Bounty #316 into the system.

Benchmarks: https://martin.ankerl.com/2022/08/27/has...ults-table See "std::unordered_map | std::hash" for what we have. And "gtl::flat_hash_map | std::hash" for what we'd replace to.
