Don't populate cleaning policies during initialization procedure so the user
has to call the latter explicitly.
Until now cleaning policies could be populated in two ways:
- implicitly during cleaning policy initialization,
- explicitly be calling populate.
The difference was that the former was single threaded.
This patch removes the functionally redundant and less efficient code.

The function not only recovers cleaning policy metadata but is also utilized
to initialize data structures so more generic name is actually more accurate

Starting cache in a standby mode requires access to a valid cleaning policy
type. If the policy is stored only in the superblock, it may be overridden by
one of the metadata passive updates.
To prevent losing the information it should be stored in cache's runtime
metadata.

To prevent deinitializing cleaner context (i.e. during switching policy) during
processing requests, access to cleaner should be protected with reference
counter

The change should unify access to cleaning policy resources and facilitate
synchronization when switching cleaning policies
