[PATCH] Cache: gracefully exit the cache manager process

Hello!

I've recently run into an issue in the nginx cache manager process
which does not call ngx_worker_process_exit to gracefully exit, thus
tragically skipping all my cleanup code registered by my (3rd-party)
modules.

Below is a patch to fix this. This fix also makes the cache manager
process valgrind-clean.

Thanks!
