upstream: use hash instead of MessageDifferencer for metadata/locality comparison

Replace Protobuf::util::MessageDifferencer with MessageUtil::hash for
equality checks in hot paths to reduce CPU during large EDS updates:

- updateDynamicHostList: metadata comparison (upstream_impl.cc)
- LocalityEndpointEqualTo: locality/endpoint comparison (locality_endpoint.h)

Hash comparison is typically faster than reflection-based MessageDifferencer
and matches Envoy's MessageLiteDifferencer approach when full protos are
disabled. Helps with clusters of ~5k endpoints where these comparisons run
per host on each EDS update.
