[horde] Cache slowly filling up with driver File

[Arjen de Korte]

I use the filebased cache, which stores data on a tmpfs. Works fine  
except for one slight problem, the number of files cached doesn't  
stabilize at all, it keeps growing.

Right after cleaning the cache partition, almost all cached files are  
listed in the 'horde_cache_gc', so eventually these will be caught  
during garbage collection. But I also see the number of files that are  
*not* listed growing every day (which as far as I can see, means these  
will never be removed).

I see that in many places, no explicit lifetime is set when storing an  
entry in the cache (for instance, the information retrieved by the  
weather info), so these will never be GC'd as only files with non-zero  
lifetime will make it into the 'horde_cache_gc'. Wouldn't it be a  
better idea to let *any* file stored in the filebased cache timeout to  
prevent them from piling up?
