    Allow bmemcached to be optional for memcache_pool
    
    This allows oslo_cache.memcache_pool to be used without the
    python-binary-memcached package being installed, as it is
    only required if sasl_enabled is set to True.

Title:
  python-binary-memcached is now a hard dependency but doesn't need to
  be

Status in oslo.cache:
  Fix Released
Status in python-oslo.cache package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  See
  https://opendev.org/openstack/oslo.cache/commit/d229d3edb73610137d78779b12e6dc226a3c6e61

  I'm having issues with the python-binary-memcached package. For
  ubuntu, if it is a required dependency then we need to get it into
  main (since oslo.ache is in main). In order to do that we need the
  python-binary-memcachd package to run unit tests. However the upstream
  repository's unit tests don't run successfully and upstream also
  doesn't gate PRs with unit test execution. For more on that see:
  https://github.com/jaysonsantos/python-binary-memcached/issues/250

  Can we make it an optional dependency?
  In other words, considering it is only used if sasl_enabled=True, we could allow the memcache_pool backend to continue to execute as it used to even if python-binary-memcached is not installed.
