Pull request overview
This PR simplifies the GetGeoHashCode method by removing unnecessary unsafe code patterns. The refactoring replaces MemoryMarshal.GetReference combined with Unsafe.Add pointer arithmetic with straightforward array indexing. According to the godbolt analysis linked in the PR description, the compiler generates equivalent assembly code for both approaches, making the unsafe approach unnecessary.
Key Changes
- Replaced unsafe pointer-based character access with direct array indexing
- Simplified variable naming (
hashState→hash) for improved clarity - Removed unused
