Subject: Factor run_in_background out from preserve_fn

It annoys me that we create temporary function objects when there's really no
need for it. Let's factor the gubbins out of preserve_fn and start using it.

Subject: Fix bug where state cache used lots of memory

The state cache bases its size on the sum of the size of entries. The
size of the entry is calculated once on insertion, so it is important
that the size of entries does not change.

The DictionaryCache modified the entries size, which caused the state
cache to incorrectly think it was smaller than it actually was.

From 05630758f25d958bf60fde4df5f80a89e4a9a0ac Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Richard van der Hoff <richard@matrix.org>
Date: Thu, 29 Mar 2018 22:57:28 +0100
Subject: Use static JSONEncoders

using json.dumps with custom options requires us to create a new JSONEncoder on
each call. It's more efficient to create one upfront and reuse it.
