Enhance WindowCache statistics

Add the following statistics
- cache hit count and hit ratio
- cache miss count and miss ratio
- count of successful and failed loads
- rate of failed loads
- load, eviction and request count
- average and total load time

Use LongAdder instead of AtomicLong to implement counters in order to
improve scalability.

Optionally expose these metrics via JMX, they are registered with the
platform MBean server if the config option jmx.WindowCacheStats = true
in the user or system level git config.
