add oidset API

This is similar to many of our uses of sha1-array, but it
overcomes one limitation of a sha1-array: when you are
de-duplicating a large input with relatively few unique
entries, sha1-array uses 20 bytes per non-unique entry.
Whereas this set will use memory linear in the number of
unique entries (albeit a few more than 20 bytes due to
hashmap overhead).
