WPA can spend a lot of time just resizing the type merging hash tables.
This adds experimental --params to size them large initially. On my large
LTO build I get a 1.1% improvement in build time from presizing the hash
tables to a large enough value.

Later on I think it's better to either always use large hash tables
(virtual memory is cheap) or to dynamically size them based on a
estimate of the available types. But as a first step having
these --params is useful to play around with it.

With what values?  Certainly we will have at least as many hashes
as types, so increasing the hash cache sizes to the size of the types
(thus use the same --param) would be obvious.  Likewise there will
be less canonical types than regular types.

For the test I used just the final values from -flto-report from a previous
run.  I know it's cheating. But it's reasonable to just always use a 
large table, unless someone comes up with a nice way to pre estimate.

iirc the caches were usually smaller than the types from lto-report. Perhaps
they have less collisions.

That logic doesn't really work for hash tables. Assuming the hash keys
as close to random (as they should be), there is no locality of reference,
so most/all of the hash table will be part of the working set: hash tables
don't just use virtual memory, they use real memory.

A very sparsely populated hash table may end up wasting most of each VM page
to just store a few hashed values. Bad for locality, and bad for performance.
