Description

### Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I would like to be able to tune the entity cache weighter configuration according to observed statistics.

### Describe the solution you'd like

Wire through Caffeine stats as well as any additional stats that might be useful, analogous to those in the NoSQL [CaffeineCacheBackend](https://github.com/apache/polaris/blob/7866ce5c009d64e4c1454b47bca3df9873c6c0b2/persistence/nosql/persistence/impl/src/main/java/org/apache/polaris/persistence/nosql/impl/cache/CaffeineCacheBackend.java) class.

### Describe alternatives you've considered

Research direction

Start with the JDBC persistence implementation and locate InMemoryEntityCache. Compare its available cache behavior with persistence/nosql/persistence/impl/src/main/java/org/apache/polaris/persistence/nosql/impl/cache/CaffeineCacheBackend.java, then identify the Caffeine and other useful statistics to expose. Done means the JDBC cache provides analogous observable statistics for tuning its weighter configuration.
