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.
