Patch for locked files during expired pages renewing

The problem appears when a cached page is reaching expiration and must be renew
from a back end (http, ajp, coldfusion ...).

In fact the symptom is that the returned datas are never updated after
expiration. Inspecting the code, it seems that the handle on the data file is
not closed when the header in check for expiration and appear to be renewed.

So the patch adds a new function in the cache_provider structure for closing
all opened handles on errors or expiration reached. This patch applies changes
to mod_cache, mod_disk_cache and mod_mem_cache modules.

This patch is a work around and does not correct definitely the problem. In
fact the conjunction of locks, multithreading and the duration between the open
and close calls can makes the bug persistent on heavy loaded cached urls.

explanations to reproduce the bug.
