Specify an initial size for the istate.dir_hash hash map matching the size of the istate.name_hash.

Previously hashmap_init() was given 0, causing a 64 bucket hashmap to be created. When working with very large repositories, this would cause numerous rehash() calls to realloc and rebalance the hashmap. This is especially true when the worktree is deep, with many directories containing a only a few files each.
