/**
 * The cache definition class.
 *
 * Cache definitions need to be defined in db/caches.php files.
 * They can be constructed with the following options.
 *
 * Required settings:
 *     + mode
 *          [int] Sets the mode for the definition. Must be one of cache_store::MODE_*
 *
 * Optional settings:
 *     + simplekeys
 *          [bool] Set to true if your cache will only use simple keys for its items.
 *          Simple keys consist of digits, underscores and the 26 chars of the english language. a-zA-Z0-9_
 *          If true the keys won't be hashed before being passed to the cache store for gets/sets/deletes. It will be
 *          better for performance and possible only becase we know the keys are safe.
 *     + simpledata
 *          [bool] If set to true we know that the data is scalar or array of scalar.
 *     + requireidentifiers
 *          [array] An array of identifiers that must be provided to the cache when it is created.
 *     + requiredataguarantee
 *          [bool] If set to true then only stores that can guarantee data will remain available once set will be used.
 *     + requiremultipleidentifiers
 *          [bool] If set to true then only stores that support multiple identifiers will be used.
 *     + requirelockingread
 *          [bool] If set to true then a lock will be gained before reading from the cache store. It is recommended not to use
 *          this setting unless 100% absolutely positively required. Remember 99.9% of caches will NOT need this setting.
 *          This setting will only be used for application caches presently.
 *     + requirelockingwrite
 *          [bool] If set to true then a lock will be gained before writing to the cache store. As above this is not recommended
 *          unless truly needed. Please think about the order of your code and deal with race conditions there first.
 *          This setting will only be used for application caches presently.
 *     + maxsize
 *          [int] If set this will be used as the maximum number of entries within the cache store for this definition.
 *          Its important to note that cache stores don't actually have to acknowledge this setting or maintain it as a hard limit.
 *     + overrideclass
 *          [string] A class to use as the loader for this cache. This is an advanced setting and will allow the developer of the
 *          definition to take 100% control of the caching solution.
 *          Any class used here must inherit the cache_loader interface and must extend default cache loader for the mode they are
 *          using.
 *     + overrideclassfile
 *          [string] Suplements the above setting indicated the file containing the class to be used. This file is included when
 *          required.
 *     + datasource
 *          [string] A class to use as the data loader for this definition.
 *          Any class used here must inherit the cache_data_loader interface.
 *     + datasourcefile
 *          [string] Supplements the above setting indicating the file containing the class to be used. This file is included when
 *          required.
 *     + staticacceleration
 *          The cache loader will keep an array of the items set and retrieved to the cache during the request.
 *          Consider using this setting when you know that there are going to be many calls to the cache for the same information.
 *          Requests for data in this array will be ultra fast, but it will cost memory.
 *     + staticaccelerationsize
 *          [int] This supplements the above setting by limiting the number of items in the static acceleration array.
 *          Tweaking this setting lower will allow you to minimise the memory implications above while hopefully still managing to
 *          offset calls to the cache store.
 *     + ttl
 *          [int] A time to live for the data (in seconds). It is strongly recommended that you don't make use of this and
 *          instead try to create an event driven invalidation system.
 *          Not all cache stores will support this natively and there are undesired performance impacts if the cache store does not.
 *     + mappingsonly
 *          [bool] If set to true only the mapped cache store(s) will be used and the default mode store will not. This is a super
 *          advanced setting and should not be used unless absolutely required. It allows you to avoid the default stores for one
 *          reason or another.
 *     + invalidationevents
 *          [array] An array of events that should cause this cache to invalidate some or all of the items within it.
 *     + sharingoptions
 *          [int] The sharing options that are appropriate for this definition. Should be the sum of the possible options.
 *     + defaultsharing
 *          [int] The default sharing option to use. It's highly recommended that you don't set this unless there is a very
 *          specific reason not to use the system default.
 *     + canuselocalstore
 *          [bool] The cache is able to safely run with multiple copies on different webservers without any need for administrator
 *                 intervention to ensure that data stays in sync across nodes.  This is usually managed by a revision
 *                 system as seen in modinfo cache or language cache.  Requiring purge on upgrade is not sufficient as
 *                 it requires administrator intervention on each node to make it work.
 *
 * For examples take a look at lib/db/caches.php
