changeset 6445:c9d680b00744

Cache: added watermark to reduce IO load when keys_zone is full. When a keys_zone is full then each next request to the cache is penalized. That is, the cache has to evict older files to get a slot from the keys_zone synchronously. The patch introduces new behavior in this scenario. Manager will try to maintain available free slots in the keys_zone by cleaning old files in the background.
