Currently static atom hashes are generated at compile time by reference to a constexpr mozilla::HashString function. In bug 1474793 I need to know the hash value at Rust compile time too. To avoid duplication, I will move the hash generation into StaticAtoms.py so that both nsGkAtoms.cpp and regen-atoms.py can access it.

Depends On D3286

Backed out because Bug 1482782 was backed out and it was conflicting on "xpcom/ds/nsGkAtoms.cpp".
