Description

current get_page_hierarchy has O(N*N) complexity.
It is super slow when N is a few thousands.

We should improve this to O(N) using techniques similar to #10852.

unit tested and verified.
The time improvement is about 500%, even with a small dataset.

We should not allow O(N*N) complexity in any of WordPress functions :-)
O(N) is what makes Google fast!

Cool. Could we get these test written up as a patch for WordPress tests so we have performance and functionality tests for this code available?
