[New-bugs-announce] [issue32260] siphash shouldn't byte swap the keys

[Benjamin Peterson]

New submission from Benjamin Peterson <benjamin at python.org>:

Reference siphash takes the keys as a bytes, so it makes sense to byte swap when reifying the keys as 64-bit integers. However, Python's modified siphash takes host integers in to start with.
