#3666: SafeCache key is only 32bit
-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------

Priority: major | Milestone: TorBrowserBundle 2.2.x-stable
Component: Tor Browser | Version:

-------------------------+--------------------------------------------------
We need to extend the key that safecache uses either to a 64bit int, or
just add an additional string key. 32bits is too small: the birthday
paradox says that 1 in every 64k domains will collide to the same id,
allowing identifier sharing.
