I'd rather print a loud warning when a hash index is created, but keep
the code in the tree, than just remove it entirely. That way, we'll
avoid unnecessary bit-rot to some degree, and if someone feels that
they absolutely positively need hash indexes, they will have some
existing work to begin from.
