Bug #17512 highlighted that a suitably broken data type could cause the backend to crash if either the hash function or equality function were in someway non-deterministic based on their input values. Such a data type could cause a crash of the backend due to some code which assumes that we'll always find a hash table entry corresponding to an item in the Memoize LRU list. Here we remove the assumption that we'll always find the entry corresponding to the given LRU list item and add run-time checks to verify we have found the given item in the cache. This is not a fix for bug #17512, but it will turn the crash reported by that bug report into an internal ERROR.
