LRU eviction pool implementation.

This is an improvement over the previous eviction algorithm where we use
an eviction pool that is persistent across evictions of keys, and gets
populated with the best candidates for evictions found so far.

It allows to approximate LRU eviction at a given number of samples
better than the previous algorithm used.
