* Add references to Cores in Cache, ctx holds caches, caches hold cores,
everything gets cleaned up nicely
* GC in Python seems to be a bit lazy, if we want to run CI on
low-memory machines we need to make sure it does run in between tests
'cause we don't want no huge Volumes hanging around for long

Implement simple secure erase tests. Perform IO that will trigger
copying of Data buffers and make sure OCF calls secure erase on them.

Fix some instance tracking to prevent Python-side objects from leaking
buffers.
Also, reduce min size of Cache instance (real minimum should be around ~~19MiB,
but we need to make it more deterministic and 20 MiB seems to be reasonable).
Still some stuff left to do, but it needs more investigation and, for
now, this should suffice just to enable some form of CI.

PyOCF is a tool written with testing OCF functionality in mind.
It is a Python3 (3.6 version required) package which wraps OCF
by providing Python objects in place of OCF objects (volumes, queues,
etc). Thin layer of translation between OCF objects and PyOCF objects
enables using customized behaviors for OCF primitives by subclassing
PyOCF classes.
This initial version implements only WT and WI modes and single,
synchronously operating Queue.
TO DO:
- Queues/Cleaner/MetadataUpdater implemented as Python threads
- Loading of caches from PyOCF Volumes (fix bugs in OCF)
- Make sure it works multi-threaded for more sophisticated tests
