Adding synchronization around metadata collision segment pages.
This part of metadata is modified when cacheline is mapped/unmapped
and when dirty status changes.
Synchronization on page level is required on top of cacheline
and hash bucket locks to assure metadata flush always reads
consistent state when copying entire collision table memory
page.

Global free cacheline list is divided into a set of freelists, one
per execution context. When attempting to map addres to cache, first
the freelist for current execution context is considered (fast path).
If current execution context freelist is empty (fast path failure),
mapping function attempts to get freelist from other execution context
list (slow path).
The purpose of this change is improve concurrency in freelist access.
It is part of fine granularity metadata lock implementation.

- Queue allocation is now separated from starting cache.
- Queue can be created and destroyed in runtime.
- All queue ops accept queue handle instead of queue id.
- Cache stores queues as list instead of array.
