Patch for memcache storage driver (so that it honors the timeout for tracked sessions)

When using the 'memcache only' session handler. it is possible to override the php.ini's 'session.gc_maxlifetime' parameter. Unfortunately, the variable set in config/conf.xml uses 'track_lifetime', where SessionHandler/Storage/Memcache.php looks for the variable 'track_lt'. Therefor, the SessionHandler will always fallback to the 'session.gc_maxlifetime' value from php.ini (which might be a lot smaller). Either conf.xml should be changed to use $conf[sessionhandler][params][track_lt] (which fixed the problem for me) or the SessionHandler should be changed to use 'track_lifetime' (as advertised in the constructor's comments).
