This function tests whether a given key is present in a hash table.
Emacs Lisp has long lacked a standard way to do this, leading users to
write one of:
(not (eq (gethash key table 'missing) 'missing))
or
(gethash key table)
This idiom is error-prone (when 'missing' or 'nil' are valid values),
and it obscures intent. The new function avoids such pitfalls,
improves readability, and makes the intent explicit:
(hash-table-contains-p key table)
The name 'hash-table-contains-p' exists in other Lisp dialects (e.g.,
SRFI-125), and follows the precedent of 'seq-contains-p'. Other
alternatives considered include `hash-table-has-key-p` and
`hash-table-key-exists-p`, but none were clearly better.
This was previously discussed in 2018, and all comments were positive,
but the proposed patch (implementing it in C) was never pushed:

The new opaque type replaces the previous use of vectors for obarrays.
`obarray-make` now returns objects of this type. Functions that take
obarrays continue to accept vectors for compatibility, now just using
their first slot to store an actual obarray object.
obarray-size and obarray-default-size now obsolete.

Declare obsolete.
(obarray-make, obarrayp, obarray-clear): Remove from here.

test considerably, using the print-circle trick to detect structure
sharing precisely.

(symbol, comparison): New.
(string, list, number): Remove or change examples that do not have
well-defined results, such as `eq` on strings or floats.
Edit other examples for better illustrating each respective operation.
* lisp/emacs-lisp/shortdoc.el (shortdoc--display-function):
If the parameter of :eval is a string then read, evaluate and print
the result. This was always the intention and is documented behaviour.
