/**
 * Store data in the persistent cache.
 *
 * The persistent cache is split up into several cache bins. In the default
 * cache implementation, each cache bin corresponds to a database table by the
 * same name. Other implementations might want to store several bins in data
 * structures that get flushed together. While it is not a problem for most
 * cache bins if the entries in them are flushed before their expire time, some
 * might break functionality or are extremely expensive to recalculate. These
 * will be marked with a (*). The other bins expired automatically by core.
 * Contributed modules can add additional bins and get them expired
 * automatically by implementing hook_flush_caches().
 *  - cache: Generic cache storage bin (used for variables, theme registry,
 *  locale date, list of simpletest tests etc).
 *  - cache_block: Stores the content of various blocks.
 *  - cache field: Stores the field data belonging to a given object.
 *  - cache_filter: Stores filtered pieces of content.
 *  - cache_form(*): Stores multistep forms. Flushing this bin means that some
 *  forms displayed to users lose their state and the data already submitted
 *  to them.
 *  - cache_menu: Stores the structure of visible navigation menus per page.
 *
 *  - cache_page: Stores generated pages for anonymous users. It is flushed
 *  very often, whenever a page changes, at least for every ode and comment
 *  submission. This is the only bin affected by the page cache setting on
 *  the administrator panel.
 *
 *  - cache path: Stores the system paths that have an alias.
 *
 *  - cache update(*): Stores available releases. The update server (for
 *  example, drupal.org) needs to produce the relevant XML for every project
 *  installed on the current site. As this is different for (almost) every
 *  site, it's very expensive to recalculate for the update server.
 *
 * The reasons for having several bins are as follows:
 *
 * - smaller bins mean smaller database tables and allow for faster selects and
 *   inserts
 * - we try to put fast changing cache items and rather static ones into
 *   different bins. The effect is that only the fast changing bins will need a
 *   lot of writes to disk. The more static bins will also be better cacheable
 *   with MySQL's query cache.
 * @param $cid
 *   The cache ID of the data to store.
 *   The data to store in the cache. Complex data types will be automatically
 *   Strings will be stored as plain text and not serialized.
 * @param $bin
 *   The cache bin to store the data in. Valid core values are 'cache_block',
 *   'cache_bootstrap', 'cache_field', 'cache_filter', 'cache_form',
 *   'cache_menu', 'cache_page', 'cache_update' or 'cache' for the default
 * @param $expire
 *   One of the following values:
 *   - CACHE_PERMANENT: Indicates that the item should never be removed unless
 *     explicitly told to using cache_clear_all() with a cache ID.
 *   - CACHE_TEMPORARY: Indicates that the item should be removed at the next
 *     general cache wipe.
 *   - A Unix timestamp: Indicates that the item should be kept at least until
 *     the given time, after which it behaves like CACHE_TEMPORARY.

 * set a variable with the name of the cache bin as its key and the name of
 * your class as its value. For example, if your implementation of
 * DrupalCacheInterface was called MyCustomCache, the following line would make
 * Drupal use it for the 'cache_page' bin:
 *  variable_set('cache_class_cache_page', 'MyCustomCache');
 * Additionally, you can register your cache implementation to be used by
 * default for all cache bins by setting the variable 'cache_default_class' to
 * the name of your implementation of the DrupalCacheInterface, e.g.
 * @code
 *  variable_set('cache_default_class', 'MyCustomCache');
 * @endcode
 *
 * To implement a completely custom cache bin, use the same variable format:
 * @code
 *  variable_set('cache_class_custom_bin', 'MyCustomCache');
 * @endcode
 * To access your custom cache bin, specify the name of the bin when storing
 * or retrieving cached data:
 * @code
 *  cache_set($cid, $data, 'custom_bin', $expire);
 *  cache_get($cid, 'custom_bin');
