Add dnlc_reduce_cache() support

Provide the dnlc_reduce_cache() function which attempts to prune
cached entries from the dcache and icache.  After the entries are
pruned any slabs which they may have been using are reaped.

Note the API takes a reclaim percentage but we don't have easy
access to the total number of cache entries to calculate the
reclaim count.  However, in practice this doesn't need to be
exactly correct.  We simply need to reclaim some useful fraction
(but not all) of the cache.  The caller can determine if more
needs to be done.
