This PR introduces a TTL (time-to-live) mechanism in conjunction with an LRU (least-recently-used) cache for StatsD metric aggregation. The change is designed to automatically clean up stale or unused metric entries, preventing uncontrolled memory growth in long-running statsd daemons—a problem highlighted in issue #50645.

Some static checks fail....

though I am not an statsd expert... @AutomationDev85 Do you have an opinion to the configs?

On my second pass-review. If .Values.statsd.args is defined this basically means the cacheSize/cacheType and ttl parameters are ignored.

Can you at least add this to the docs or is there a way to append the parameters to the args as well (merge them)?
