Merge branch 'jm/cache-entry-from-mem-pool'

For a large tree, the index needs to hold many cache entries
allocated on heap.  These cache entries are now allocated out of a
dedicated memory pool to amortize malloc(3) overhead.

* jm/cache-entry-from-mem-pool:
  block alloc: add validations around cache_entry lifecyle
  block alloc: allocate cache entries from mem_pool
  mem-pool: fill out functionality
  mem-pool: add life cycle management functions
  mem-pool: only search head block for available space
  block alloc: add lifecycle APIs for cache_entry structs
  read-cache: teach make_cache_entry to take object_id
  read-cache: teach refresh_cache_entry to take istate
