Title: spawn writes to folsom, cache reads via riak core stat cache

After testing, reading and writing stats concurrently slowed Riak's general throughput. Short of a process per stat (ideal) or re-introducing the gen_server (possible), spawning for each update seems like a reasonable compromise.

Also, use new stat cache provided by core.
