   Installs a callback which decides whether a statement is cached.
  </para>
  <para>
   There are several ways of hinting PELC/mysqlnd_qc to cache a query.
   By default, PECL/mysqlnd_qc attempts to cache a if caching of all statements
   is enabled or the query string begins with a certain SQL hint.
   The plugin internally calls a function named <literal>is_select()</literal>
   to find out. This internal function can be replaced with a user-defined callback.
   Then, the user-defined callback is responsible to decide whether the plugin
   attempts to cache a statement. Because the internal function is replaced
   with the callback, the callback gains full control. The callback is free
   to ignore the configuration setting <literal>mysqlnd_qc.cache_by_default</literal>
   and SQL hints.
  </para>
  <para>
   The callback is invoked for every statement inspected by the plugin.
   It is given the statements string as a parameter. The callback returns
   &false; if the statement shall not be cached. It returns &true; to
   make the plugin attempt to cache the statements result set, if any.
   A so-created cache entry is given the default TTL set with the
   PHP configuration directive <literal>mysqlnd_qc.ttl</literal>.
   If a different TTL shall be used, the callback returns a numeric
   value to be used as the TTL.
  </para>
  <para>
   The internal <literal>is_select</literal> function is part of the internal
   cache storage handler interface. Thus, a user-defined storage handler
   offers the same capabilities.
