Add functions to binaryheap for efficient key removal and update.
Previously, binaryheap didn't support updating a key and removing a node in an efficient way. For example, in order to remove a node from the binaryheap, the caller had to pass the node's position within the array that the binaryheap internally has. Removing a node from the binaryheap is done in O(log n) but searching for the key's position is done in O(n). This commit adds a hash table to binaryheap in order to track the position of each nodes in the binaryheap. That way, by using newly added functions such as binaryheap_update_up() etc., both updating a key and removing a node can be done in O(1) on an average and O(log n) in worst case. This is known as the indexed binary heap. The caller can specify to use the indexed binaryheap by passing indexed = true. The current code does not use the new indexing logic, but it will be used by an upcoming patch.
