Merged cache fixes from 3.8 branch:
- The cache used an excessive amount of memory, causing applications with large caches to exhaust available memory. - Fixed a number of bugs in the handling of persistent ZEO caches: - Cache records are written in several steps. If a process exits after writing begins and before it is finishes, the cache will be corrupt on restart. The way records are writted was changed to make cache record updates atomic. - There was no lock file to prevent opening a cache multiple times at once, which would lead to corruption. Persistent caches now use lock files, in the same way that file storages do. - A bug in the cache-opening logic led to cache failure in the unlikely event that a cache has no free blocks.
