update_sharing: weaken assumptions about db layout

Hash functions are partitioned into equivalence classes. We are
generally only interested in sharing among hash functions with the same
equivalence class, but the algorithm would compute any sharing. While
the current layout never produces the same hashes for functions in
difference equivalence classes (for different output length), that may
change in future.

Also allow hash functions, that belong to no equivalence class at all
(eqclass = NULL) as a means to add additional metadata to content
without computing any sharing for it.
