Add ngx_http_lua_ffi_shdict_store_when for set_when and safe_set_when
This pull request adds ngx_http_lua_ffi_shdict_store_when
which is used to define set_when and safe_set_when methods in ngx.shared.DICT.
These methods are useful for avoiding race conditions between successive calls of get and set.
You pass old_value as well as value to set_when, and it changes the value only when the value for the key is still the same as old_value.
Adding this method is suggested in the comment by @doujiang24.
