Change how caching works to allow dats to live longer #7

Closed RangerMauve closed 6 years ago

I think we should allow caching to be infinite with the logic changing in the following ways:

If the TTL is infinite, don't bother clearing data from the cache periodically
When we reach the max number of dats, instead of erroring out when adding a new one, clear the oldest dat in the cache

I think the gateway already allows for disabling the cleanup logic by setting the period to 0, so we might just need to add the max number logic
