mem-cache: Return evictions along with victims
For both sector and compressed caches multiple blocks may need to be evicted in order to make room for a new block. For example, when replacing a sector, all the blocks in this sector must be evicted. A replacement, however, does not always need to evict multiple blocks, as it is in the case of an insertion of a block whose sector is already present in the cache (i.e., its corresponding entry in the sector had not been brought in yet, so it was invalid). This patch creates the cache framework for that to happen.
