sql: implement memory management system for caches

This PR implements a memory management system, intended to have
control over the allocated memory for caches so that they can be
freed at any moment and we can avoid out of memory errors.

The main changes are the following:

- MemoryManager in the sql package, which is just the component that
  tracks all caches. Memory of all freeable caches can be freed
  using the Free method of this component. The only way to instantiate
  new caches is using the NewXXXCache methods.
- Rows, history and LRU cache implementations, accessed using the
  NewXXXCache methods of MemoryManager.
- Reporters, which is a component that reports the maximum amount
  of memory the program is allowed to use and the currently used memory.
  This interface is meant for making testing easier. There is a default
  ProcessMemory reporter that returns the memory used by the process and
  the maximum memory defined in the `MAX_MEMORY` environment variable.
- MemoryManager is passed down to every component through *sql.Context,
  which meant a little more boilerplate on the server SessionBuilder.
- GroupBy, Sort, Distinct and Join now use the provided APIs of memory
  and cache management for their in-memory computations.

Caveats:
- We need to think of a good default so that memory usage won't grow
  forever and crash eventually, which is the behaviour when MAX_MEMORY is 0.
