Now that every operation on the hashtable is always behind a read or write transaction, it's not necessary to have to rely on a tricky logic and memory fences to ensure that a read will never cause an issue if a write changes something as they will never run in parallel.
The PR drops the memory fences, introduces some minor optimizations now that reads are consistent and clean up a lot of unnecessary logging.
The PR also contains a minor fix for a build warning when building C++ code (e.g. benchmarks or tests) and the necessary changes to update the set benchmark for the hashtable to the new paradigm implemented.
