Description
As discussed with mmarczyk in irc, the attached patch implements Clojure's hash-set function and modifies the compiler to create sets using a new fromArray static method. To test these, I created three new benchmarks. Here's before and after benchmark results:
$ time ./script/benchmark | grep '#{'
[], #{}, 100000 runs, 77 msecs
[], #{1 2 3}, 100000 runs, 582 msecs
[coll #{1 2 3}], (conj coll 4), 100000 runs, 104 msecs
[], #{}, 100000 runs, 740 msecs

[coll #{1 2 3}], (conj coll 4), 100000 runs, 221 msecs
