rINP16753: Fixes INP-1750 - Support PHP Memcached extension for caching

Summary

Added memcached support.

Test Plan

Part 1 (general test on PHP5)

confirm, that Memcached service is installed and started on the server
restart Memcached service
re-install In-Portal and on "Step 11 - System Configuration" confirm, that option "Memcached (via "Memcache" extension)" is available choice for "Output Caching Engine" dropdown.
choose this option.
login to Administrative Console
go to Tools → System Tools section
confirm, that "Memory Cache" sub-section is visible

Part 2 (general test on PHP7)

confirm, that Memcached service is installed and started on the server
restart Memcached service
re-install In-Portal and on "Step 11 - System Configuration" confirm, that option "Memcached (via "Memcached" extension)" is available choice for "Output Caching Engine" dropdown.
choose this option.
login to Administrative Console
go to Tools → System Tools section
confirm, that "Memory Cache" sub-section is visible

NOTE: Perform following tests twice - once after Part 1 installation, and once after Part 2 installation.

Preparation for following tests

create /memcache_test.php file with following content:

<?php
<?php
$start = microtime(true);

define('FULL_PATH', realpath(dirname(__FILE__)));
include_once(FULL_PATH.'/core/kernel/startup.php');

$application =& kApplication::Instance();
$application->Init();

echo 'PHP ' . PHP_VERSION . '<br/><br/>';

switch ( $application->GetVar('step') ) {
    case 'delete':
        echo 'Deleting Infinite Key<br/>' . PHP_EOL;
        $application->deleteCache('infinite_key');

        echo 'Deleting Expiring Key<br/>' . PHP_EOL;
        $application->deleteCache('expiring_key');

        echo 'Deleting Infinite Added Key<br/>' . PHP_EOL;
        $application->deleteCache('infinite_added_key');

        echo 'Deleting Expiring Added Key<br/>' . PHP_EOL;
        $application->deleteCache('expiring_added_key');
        break;

    case 'set':
        $result = $application->setCache('infinite_key', 'infinite value');
        echo 'Setting Infinite Key: ';
        var_dump($result);

        $result = $application->setCache('expiring_key', 'expiring value', 30);
        echo 'Setting Expiring Key: ';
        var_dump($result);

        $result = $application->addCache('infinite_added_key', 'infinite added value');
        echo 'Adding Infinite Adding Key: ';
        var_dump($result);

        $result = $application->addCache('expiring_added_key', 'expiring added value', 30);
        echo 'Adding Expiring Adding Key: ';
        var_dump($result);
        break;

    default:
        echo 'Getting Infinite Key:' . PHP_EOL;
        var_dump($application->getCache('infinite_key'));

        echo 'Getting Expiring Key:' . PHP_EOL;
        var_dump($application->getCache('expiring_key'));

        echo 'Getting Infinite Added Key:' . PHP_EOL;
        var_dump($application->getCache('infinite_added_key'));

        echo 'Getting Expiring Added Key:' . PHP_EOL;
        var_dump($application->getCache('expiring_added_key'));
        break;
}

$end = microtime(true);

this is URL for showing: .../memcache_test.php?step=show

Test plan requested updates:

cover auto-usage of Memcached on PHP 7+, when Memcache is configured to be used
cover usage of new caching backend (all public methods via corresponding kApplication facade methods (e.g. MemcachedCacheHandler::add maps to kApplication::addCache and so on)

I'm not able to test any further, because all data set to cache will auto-expire immediately.

core/install/install_toolkit.php
973–975 ↗	(On Diff #875)	Please reformat to have one array element on one line.
core/kernel/utility/cache.php
107 ↗	(On Diff #875)	Please replace version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '7.0.0', '>=') with PHP_VERSION_ID >= 70000 Works faster.
835 ↗	(On Diff #875)	I doubt, that class name used in `Memcached` PHP extension matches class name used in `Memcache` PHP extension.
905 ↗	(On Diff #875)	Please pass argument according to method signature: `Memcache::set( string $key , mixed $var [, int $flag [, int $expire ]] )` `Memcached::set( string $key , mixed $value [, int $expiration ] )` The value of `$expiration` parameter is ignored.
921 ↗	(On Diff #875)	Please pass argument according to method signature: `Memcache::add( string $key , mixed $var [, int $flag [, int $expire ]] )` `Memcached::add( string $key , mixed $value [, int $expiration ] )` The value of `$expiration` parameter is ignored.

erik edited edge metadata.

Not reopening, but test plan have issues:

not tested, that data is actually persistent in Memcache (e.g. available on different page loads)
not tested, that data in Memcache expires at given moment of time

Fixed API difference causing a notice (and non-working cache), when attempting to get several keys at once using get method.

Removed test file.

This change isn't a bug fix request, but a requirement change, that happened over time.

Please also update the test plan.

core/kernel/utility/cache.php
107–109 ↗	(On Diff #886)	move the code, that creates cache handler object (with fallback to the fake cache handler) above this IF statement if cache handler isn't working (use the `isWorking` method) AND we're using `MemcacheCacheHandler` cache handler (you can do either `instanceof` on the object OR compare `$handler_class`), then use `MemcachedCacheHandler` With CentOS, it's possible to install both PHP extensions (Memcache & Memcached) on any PHP version (even 5.x one). Therefore the assumption of fact, that if it's PHP 7, then the Memcache module is 100% non-available isn't true anymore.

core/kernel/utility/cache.php
107–109 ↗	(On Diff #886)	Instead of changing the fallback solution do this: delete this fallback code in the "\kInstallToolkit::getWorkingCacheHandlers" method change the `$cache_handlers` array as follows: change `'Memcache' => 'Memcached',` into `'Memcache' => 'Memcached (via "Memcache" extension)',` before the above-changed array element add `'Memcached' => 'Memcached (via "Memcached" extension)',` update the test plan to include testing cache handler selection on an existing install via corresponding installation wizard step (no need to test re-install/upgrade for this)

core/install/install_toolkit.php
974 ↗	(On Diff #886)	Replace with 'Memcache' => 'Memcached (via "Memcache" extension)', .

core/kernel/utility/cache.php
106–111 ↗	(On Diff #1137)	Please return this code. When I said `delete this fallback code` in my previous comment that was meant only to selected code of that inline comment, which was: if ( $handler_class == 'MemcacheCacheHandler' && PHP_VERSION_ID >= 70000 ) { $handler_class = 'MemcachedCacheHandler'; }
898 ↗	(On Diff #1137)	Please remove. No longer relevant.
914 ↗	(On Diff #1137)	Please remove. No longer relevant.
928 ↗	(On Diff #1137)	Please remove the `, 0`. According to Memcached server documentation this behavior is no longer supported.
