Get rid of FileSystemCacheThreshold parameter [CORE6332]

Since FileSystemCacheThreshold looks like an attempt to allow a kind of "per database" configuration for filesystem cache usage when there was no databases.conf, I suggest to get rid of it and create a more obvious per database parameter, ie: AllowFilesystemCache (boolean), in Firebird 4.

New boolean per-database setting "UseFileSystemCache" was introduced. It overrides legacy "FileSystemCacheThreshold" setting, that will be removed in the next major Firebird release.

If "UseFileSystemCache" is set, then value of "FileSystemCacheThreshold" is ignored.
If "UseFileSystemCache" is not set, and "FileSystemCacheThreshold" is set then value of "FileSystemCacheThreshold" is in use and accounted by the engine.
