Cache: Update comments and examples in proxy/config/storage.config
------------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: TS-47
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TS-47
             Project: Traffic Server
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Cache
    Affects Versions: 2.0a
         Environment: All Linux
            Reporter: George Paul
            Priority: Trivial


Updating the comments and examples in proxy/config/storage.config to reflect 
how to use a file for cache storage and also that support for O_DIRECT exists 
for kernels >= 2.6.3.  "Raw device" support has been declared obsolete since 
kernel 2.6.3. http://lkml.org/lkml/2007/2/16/431 in favor of 'O_DIRECT' flag 
which is in Jira TS-13.

Using a file for the cache storage:

<pathname> <size>

Where 'pathname' is full path to the directory where you want the cache-file to 
live and 'size' is size in bytes

Example: 128MB cache file(/usr/local/trafficserver/cache/cache.db)

/usr/local/trafficserver/cache 134217728

Example: Using O_DIRECT on disks (kernel >= 2.6.3) or cooked disks (kernel < 
2.6.3)

/dev/sdb            # 250GB drive
/dev/sdc            # 250GB drive
/dev/sdd            # 500GB drive
