purge_all() and purge_by_definition() look in the configuration
for which caches are available and then creates them to purge them.
The configuration stores the values used by initialise(), not
initialise_unit_test_instance() and would therefore fail to purge
all caches if they were not purged by another means.
In the case of filestore, it's purged by unit tests, in the case
of memcache(d), it purges the whole store when a single definition
is requested.
Therefore all configuration was moved into the configuration file
during unit tests and does not have any special override codes in
the unit test infrastructure.
This issue makes several fixes for the session loader and the session store.
* maxsize argument now works for session caches.
* fixed performance hole when interation occurs frequently.
* fixed cache purge bug occuring when multiple caches are defined before being used.
* improved lastaccess handling.
Big thanks to Marina who contributed the following commits:
* Always make sure the elements in cache are sorted so we need to remove only elements in the beginning of array
* Remove expired elements from session store to free memory
* Minor bug fixes

isset is much faster than array_key_exists. For caches we need to
ensure as much performance as possible. To all null to continue to
be stored and provide correct results, non ttl also now saves in
$this->store[$key][0]. As isset($this->store[$key]) will return
true in all cases.
time() as found in cache::now() can be slow on some platforms and
we shouldn't bother checking it unless needed. It also stops non-ttl
caches paying the ttl price.
Unit tests were adjusted to ensure null is still handled correctly
when we are only using isset.
This change is a large change to the way sessions are handled
within MUC after it was discovered that session did not function
as expected when any store other than the default session store
was being used.
As part of this change the session loader has been largely
customised in order to consolidate session data for the loader.
The unit tests have also being greatly increased to provide
better coverage for sessions.
