/**
 * Store data in the persistent cache.
 *
 * The persistent cache is split up into four database
 * tables. Contributed modules can add additional tables.
 *
 * 'cache_page': This table stores generated pages for anonymous
 * users. This is the only table affected by the page cache setting on
 * the administrator panel.
 *
 * 'cache_menu': Stores the cachable part of the users' menus.
 *
 * 'cache_filter': Stores filtered pieces of content. This table is
 * periodically cleared of stale entries by cron.
 *
 * 'cache': Generic cache storage table.
 *
 * The reasons for having several tables are as follows:
 *
 * - smaller tables allow for faster selects and inserts
 * - we try to put fast changing cache items and rather static
 *   ones into different tables. The effect is that only the fast
 *   changing tables will need a lot of writes to disk. The more
 *   static tables will also be better cachable with MySQL's query cache
 *
 * @param $cid
 *   The cache ID of the data to store.
 * @param $data
 *   The data to store in the cache. Complex data types will be automatically serialized before insertion.
 *   Strings will be stored as plain text and not serialized.
 * @param $table
 *   The table $table to store the data in. Valid core values are 'cache_filter',
 *   'cache_menu', 'cache_page', or 'cache'.
 * @param $expire
 *   One of the following values:
 *   - CACHE_PERMANENT: Indicates that the item should never be removed unless
 *     explicitly told to using cache_clear_all() with a cache ID.
 *   - CACHE_TEMPORARY: Indicates that the item should be removed at the next
 *     general cache wipe.
 *   - A Unix timestamp: Indicates that the item should be kept at least until
 *     the given time, after which it behaves like CACHE_TEMPORARY.
 * @param $headers
 *   A string containing HTTP header information for cached pages.
 *
 *   @see cache_get()
