This didn't turn out quite as pretty as I had imagined. I needed to
leave the two statuses defined in simplehash.h so that callers could
make use of them. (Result Cache will do this).
The change here would be callers would need to use SH_STATUS_IN_USE
rather than <prefix>_SH_IN_USE.
I'm not really that sold on doing things this way. I really just don't
want to have to make my status field a uint32 in Result Cache per what
the new comment states we must do. If there's a nicer way, then
perhaps that's worth considering.
