jsonPathXXX transformations

+ * <p>The existing jay way LRUCache is very inefficient, It will cause

Review comment:
       It's not a problem. I co-authored Guava's so either way my code is used. 
😄 
   
   @Ferrari6 is correct in what your preference and default should be, though. 
Prior to my involvement, the Guava team bet on reference caching (MapMaker) and 
spent their complexity budget by forking the hash table as an optimization. 
This was a mistake because soft references can cause GC death spirals of stop 
the world events and unpredictable evictions, but looked fine in a naive 
benchmark. This blew their complexity budget, so porting size eviction from 
[CLHM](https://github.com/ben-manes/concurrentlinkedhashmap) favored simplicity 
over performance.
   
   The longer-term problem you'll face is that no one maintains CacheBuilder. 
The last big change was adding Map.compute, but it was riddled with major bugs 
and done inefficiently. I fixed some of those problems, but there are show 
stoppers. If you keep to the historic functionality then Guava's can be made 
acceptable in most cases. Caffeine does have jar bloat by code generating 
per-configuration entry classes to minimize the memory footprint. In those 
cases where disk is a premium some projects embed CLHM into their code base, 
e.g. msjdbc and groovy. You'll probably have many caches throughout Pinot 
making the Caffeine dependency worthwhile even if you can get by in a 
case-by-case basis.
