Thomas Waldmann 5e2de8ba67 implement files cache mode control, fixes #911
You can now control the files cache mode using this option:

--files-cache={ctime,mtime,size,inode,rechunk,disabled}*

(only some combinations are supported)

Previously, only these modes were supported:
- mtime,size,inode (default of borg < 1.1.0rc4)
- mtime,size (by using --ignore-inode)
- disabled (by using --no-files-cache)

Now, you additionally get:
- ctime alternatively to mtime (more safe), e.g.:
  ctime,size,inode (this is the new default of borg >= 1.1.0rc4)
- rechunk (consider all files as changed, rechunk them)

Deprecated:
- --ignore-inodes (use modes without "inode")
- --no-files-cache (use "disabled" mode)

The tests needed some changes:
- previously, we use os.utime() to set a files mtime (atime) to specific
  values, but that does not work for ctime.
- now use time.sleep() to create the "latest file" that usually does
  not end up in the files cache (see FAQ)

Thomas Waldmann bf69b049e9 be clear about what buzhash is used for, fixes #2390
and want it is not used for (deduplication).

also say already in the readme that we use a cryptohash
for dedupe, so people don't worry.
