Persist cache keys index to a file

Persist cache keys index after every prune operation (temporarily) and
additionally on cache close operation.

Notes:
* it is persisted to '[cache_file_name].index.tmp' file and once
  operation is finished renamed to '[cache_file_name].index' so that
  in case when Gerrit is abruptly closed the index file is not
  corrupted
