Make model conform to Hashable #158

Description

@danielrhammond

Building on the work in #157 we can remove ModelVersion and ModelVersionMixer entirely from Pilot by making model conform to Hashable as part of its requirements.

Pros:

  • Very common that we want Hashable (or at bare minimum Equatable) for our models,
  • Swift 4.2 autogen'ing conformance for simple structs makes this not a pain for most models
  • Makes things feel more swifty (having a separate hasher is definitely a drag in the post 4.2 world)

Cons:

  • Forces Equatable for models (not sure this is actually bad but could be perceived to be higher bar than ModelVersion implementation)
  • Can't separate out hashing for pilots benefit from generic hashing function (this is mostly a good thing, but we exploited this once or twice in $RIP_SECRET_PROJECT to drop noisy user updates for example)
  • Breaking change

I'm solidly pro but wanted to check for feedback before proceeding (cc @wkiefer)
