Implement async MemoryFile eviction, and use it in CachingInodeOperations.
This feature allows MemoryFile to delay eviction of "optional"
allocations, such as unused cached file pages.
Note that this incidentally makes CachingInodeOperations writeback
asynchronous, in the sense that it doesn't occur until eviction; this is
necessary because between when a cached page becomes evictable and when
it's evicted, file writes (via CachingInodeOperations.Write) may dirty
the page.
As currently implemented, this feature won't meaningfully impact
steady-state memory usage or caching; the reclaimer goroutine will
schedule eviction as soon as it runs out of other work to do. Future CLs
increase caching by adding constraints on when eviction is scheduled.
