Simplify FileNode Cache. Remove the need for PlaceHolder.

- Store std::shared_ptr's directly, no need for PlaceHolder wrapper
 - Use std::forward_list to store shared_ptr's, the shared_ptr
   is guaranteed to be unique hence a set is an unnecessary overhead
 - Refactor code to use FileNode * instead of PlaceHolder *
