// Cache is an interface to an expiring cache.  It behaves (and is modeled) like
// the Memcached interface.  It is keyed by strings (250 bytes at most).
//
// Many callers will make exclusive use of Set and Get, but more exotic
// functions are also available.
//
// Example
//
// Here is a typical Get/Set interaction:
//
//   var items []*Item
//   if err := cache.Get("items", &items); err != nil {
//     items = loadItems()
//     go cache.Set("items", items, cache.DEFAULT)
//   }
//
// Note that the caller will frequently not wait for Set() to complete.
//
// Errors
//
// It is assumed that callers will infrequently check returned errors, since any
// request should be fulfillable without finding anything in the cache.  As a
// result, all errors other than ErrCacheMiss and ErrNotStored will be logged to
// revel.ERROR, so that the developer does not need to check the return value to
// discover things like deserialization or connection errors.
