In last few weeks, we did some refactor in dictionary encoding.
Since the new designed hash table for DictionaryEncoder and hashCode & equals API in ValueVector already checked in, some classed are no use anymore like DictionaryEncodingHashTable, BaseBinaryVector and related benchmarks & UT.
Fortunately, these changes are not made into version 0.14, which makes possible to remove them.
I think this should be merged before 0.14.1? @emkornfield
