* remove a condition that table size must be passed as power of 2
* remove power-of-2 condition from sets and sharedtables
* remove power-of-2 condition from deques
* use 'correctSize' for both branches
* prettify changelog.md and fix typos
* add a changelog entry
* fix double-call of 'right-size'
* fix the same thing in sets.nim
* introduce a new internal proc `slotsNeeded`
Deprecate the public proc `rightSize`, which is not needed anymore.
Now it is an identity function, allowing the old code to work
correctly and without extra allocations.

(#13816)
* Unwind just the "pseudorandom probing" (whole hash-code-keyed variable
stride double hashing) part of recent sets & tables changes (which has
still been causing bugs over a month later (e.g., two days ago
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/13794) as well as still having
several "figure this out" implementation question comments in them (see
just diffs of this PR).
This topic has been discussed in many places:
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/13393
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/13418
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/pull/13440
https://github.com/nim-lang/Nim/issues/13794
Alternative/non-mandatory stronger integer hashes (or vice-versa opt-in
identity hashes) are a better solution that is more general (no illusion
of one hard-coded sequence solving all problems) while retaining the
virtues of linear probing such as cache obliviousness and age-less tables
under delete-heavy workloads (still untested after a month of this change).
The only real solution for truly adversarial keys is a hash keyed off of
data unobservable to attackers. That all fits better with a few families
of user-pluggable/define-switchable hashes which can be provided in a
separate PR more about `hashes.nim`.
This PR carefully preserves the better (but still hard coded!) probing
of the `intsets` and other recent fixes like `move` annotations, hash
order invariant tests, `intsets.missingOrExcl` fixing, and the move of
`rightSize` into `hashcommon.nim`.
* Fix `data.len` -> `dataLen` problem.
