/**
\brief Indicates the discard policy to make room for entries when the cache is full.

Once the cache is full and another entry is added,
`lru_ttl` unconditionally deletes all entries that have expired and then,
if deleting these entries did not create sufficient free space, deletes entries
in least-recently-used order until enough space is available.

If the discard policy is set to `lru_only`, entries do not maintain an expiry time and
are therefore discarded strictly in LRU order.
