[C++] Add a compute function to hash inputs #31876

Description

@asfimport

We have a lot of internal logic for hashing inputs and it might be nice to expose some of this to users (e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/72177022/how-to-get-hash-of-string-column-in-polars-or-pyarrow)

The HashBatch method in key_hash.h (not quite merged but close) is likely to be the most performant. However, it does make some sacrifices on uniqueness of hashes in the spirit of performance (so we should make sure to document these).
