runtime: make it harder to find collisions in the 64-bit fallback hash

Currently the first argument to mix() can be set by an attacker, as it
is just the input bytes xored by some constants. That lets an attacker
set the value being multipled by to 0. That can lead to lots of
collisions. To fix, xor the first argument with the process-wide seed,
so the magic collision-generating value isn't a constant known to the
attacker.  (Maybe there's a timing attack that could figure out the
process-wide seed, but that's a much harder attack.)

Fixes #66841
