v1 --- > v2:
1. rename 'reclaim' to 'deletion'
2. add some comments

Object list cache does not take too much memory, so reclaiming seems
unnecessary, but there's a problem:

Objects belonging to a deleted VDI does not exist any more, but the
associated entries still stay in the cache list, so if a recovery
happens, sheep would try to recovery these objects and of cause this
would cause many object recovery failure, and waste resource.

levin li (3):
  sheep: notify VDI deletion to all nodes when deleting a VDI
  object list cache: put all the cache entry into a list
  object list cache: reclaim object list cache when receiving a
    deletion event.
