mod_cache_socache: avoid pool to heap reallocation. 

Below some threshold, the previous code tried free (sub-)pooled memory ASAP by
moving small buffers (< capacity / 2) to a heap bucket. But this is not really
an optimization because first it requires at some point to allocate more than
the configured capacity, and second since this happens during response handling
the pool is about to be destroyed soon anymay.

This commit simply keeps the data in the subpool and uses a pool bucket for the
output brigade to take care of the lifetime until it's consumed (or not).
