layout.conf: allow a repository to state the cache is authorative

By authorative, this means "the cache is accurate; skip validation".  While
a useful hint for a slight speedup in validation, the true gain is for
repositories that are distributed in a fashion that doesn't preserve mtime;
git primarily.  Setting authorative-cache = true results in portage
skipping mtime validation checks for the bundled cache, allowing
for git vcs based repos to distribute a cache.

BUG=chromium-os:21049
TEST=dump a cache into metadata/cache, touch it to now, set layout.conf
     to authorative-cache=true, verify it doesn't generate cache entries
     for that repo.
