doc/go1.14: highlight the addition of hash/maphash package

Browse Source 
Given that it's a package that did not exist before, was a proposal
in issue #28322, got accepted and implemented for 1.14, it seems to
be more than a minor change to the library. Highlight it accordingly.

Also specify the results are 64-bit integers, as done in CL 219340.

<p> <!-- golang.org/issue/28322, CL 186877 -->
Go 1.14 includes a new package,
<a href="/pkg/hash/maphash/"><code>hash/maphash</code></a>,
which provides hash functions on byte sequences.
These hash functions are intended to be used to implement hash tables or
other data structures that need to map arbitrary strings or byte
sequences to a uniform distribution on unsigned 64-bit integers.
</p>
<p> <p>
All of the changes to the standard library are minor. The hash functions are collision-resistant but not cryptographically secure.
</p>
<p>
The hash value of a given byte sequence is consistent within a
single process, but will be different in different processes.
