Bug fixes

* added checking if socket connection to memcache server is available
* added checking if UNIX socket to memcache server is writable
* added new function _cache_early_watchdog() that can be used instead of watchdog() function in cache engine implementations. watchdog() can't be used because it may be unavailable on that stage
* more calls to _cache_early_watchdog() to keep track of caching engines status
* put error into watchdog if cache module is disabled because this may lead to problems with alternative cache.inc implementation
