WL#1212: Query cache auto defragmentation

Currently query cache in any cases starts to work inefficiently over time due 
to 
fragmentation - a lot of memory is free but still queries are purged out as 
there are no large enough queries. 
 
FLUSH QUERY CACHE is not good enough solution for two reasons 
 
1) It locks query cache for possibly long time (unbound) 
 
2) It conflicts with Zero Administration and ease of use concepts. 
User shall not setup some chron tasks to be able to get good performance. 
 
 
The solution is auto defragmentation. There are three approaches: 
 
1) Do full defragmentation optimally initiated from timer thread in case some 
condition is met (ie a lot of lowmem prunes while planty of free memory) 
 
2) Local defragmentation during normal operation. If "fragmentaion" condition 
is 
met query cache could move several query data blocks to join several free 
blocks  
in one  (similar to index merge process) 
 
I like second solution better, while it might be a bit complex to implement. 
 
Sabja: IMHO it should be stand alone program (mysql server management daemon 
WL#305 for example) 

3) MySQL Network Monitor (Merlin) saves data in a buffer for periodical
analysis. When the low memory prunes spike ("fragmentation" condition), Merlin
will issue a FLUSH QUERY CACHE and add extra value for enterprise customers.
