6ce7843774 alternator: use expression caching
Before this patch, every expression in Alternator's requests was parsed from string to adequate structure.
This patch enables caching - all calls to parse an expression (all types) are proxied through the cache.
New expression is added to the cache, the least recently used entry (above cache size) is removed.
For existing entries the copy of the template is returned - individual instances still need to be resolved (placeholders substituted with names and values).
The cache is per shard - shared for all operations, expression types, tables, users.
Default cache size is 2000 entries per shard and it has configuration option `alternator_max_expression_cache_entries_per_shard` (0 means cache disabled).
Added Python tests are based on metrics.
