Motivation
The epoch info query cache mechanism contains a hard-to-fix deadlock, possibly due to a recursive RLock() on an RWMutex. Moreover, due to an oversight, in the default fetcher mode (streaming) epoch query cache is not actually being used, while the cached slice update calls which are causing deadlock are still being made upon adding each new ATX.
With syncv2, epoch info cache will no longer be needed at all, and with current network size, it isn't very useful either.
Description
This change removes epoch query cache, keeping blob query cache for now.
Test Plan
Make sure tests pass, including systests.
