Pull request overview
Fixes a concurrency issue in the LiveBucketIndex random-eviction cache by ensuring cache lookups take a write/exclusive lock when they mutate cache-internal state (access counters / generation / last-access).
Changes:
- Switch cache lookup locking in
LiveBucketIndex::getCachedEntryfrom shared to exclusive to prevent concurrent mutation races.

Description
Resolves https://github.com/stellar/stellar-core-internal/issues/492
Originally I was going to create a thread-safe version of the random eviction cache do reduce contention, but until we observe a perf bottleneck related to this cache, just changing the lock to exclusive is the simplest fix.
