kernel: Move kernel-specific cache size options to kernel

Carrying non-kernel related fields in the cache sizes for the indexes is
confusing for kernel library users. The cache sizes also are set
currently with magic numbers in bitcoin-chainstate. The comments for the
cache size calculations are also not completely clear.

Solve these things by moving the kernel-specific cache size fields to
their own struct.

This slightly changes the way the cache is allocated if the txindex
and/or blockfilterindex is used. Since they are now given precedence
over the block tree db cache, this results in a bit less cache being
allocated to the block tree db, coinsdb and coins caches. The effect is
negligible though, i.e. cache sizes with default dbcache reported
through the logs are:

master:
Cache configuration:
* Using 2.0 MiB for block index database
* Using 56.0 MiB for transaction index database
* Using 49.0 MiB for basic block filter index database
* Using 8.0 MiB for chain state database
* Using 335.0 MiB for in-memory UTXO set (plus up to 286.1 MiB of unused mempool space)

this branch:
Cache configuration:
* Using 2.0 MiB for block index database
* Using 56.2 MiB for transaction index database
* Using 49.2 MiB for basic block filter index database
* Using 8.0 MiB for chain state database
* Using 334.5 MiB for in-memory UTXO set (plus up to 286.1 MiB of unused mempool space)
