Summary:
The patch is a continuation of part 5. It glues the abstraction for
file layout and metadata, and flush out the implementation of the API. It
adds unit tests for the implementation.
Test Plan: Run unit tests

Summary:
Persistent cache tier is the tier abstraction that can work for any block
device based device mounted on a file system. The design/implementation can
handle any generic block device.
Any generic block support is achieved by generalizing the access patten as
{io-size, q-depth, direct-io/buffered}.
We have specifically tested and adapted the IO path for NVM and SSD.
Persistent cache tier consists of there parts :
1) File layout
Provides the implementation for handling IO path for reading and writing data
(key/value pair).
2) Meta-data
Provides the implementation for handling the index for persistent read cache.
3) Implementation
It binds (1) and (2) and flushed out the PersistentCacheTier interface
This patch provides implementation for (1)(2). Follow up patch will provide (3)
and tests.
Test Plan: Compile and run check
