Use atom value as hash value in process dictionary
In the origin implementation, the hash value of atom term is retrieved from the atom table. Reading the atom table is expensive since it is in memory and leads to more cache missing. The size of a process dictionary is usually small. The atom value (the index) is unique and can be hash value for it. Using the atom value directly should be more efficient.
