Increase the maximum number of in-memory pages to use
for temporary tables.
(https://www.sqlite.org/compile.html#default_cache_size)

Part of #5609

Hi SQL team. It is a simplest part of #5609.
This patch increases the default SQL cache size by 10 times to 20 MB.
A similar experiment shows a 10% performance increase for some datasets.
(https://github.com/tarantool/tarantool/issues/5593#issuecomment-740044007).
Mons approved these changes. I haven't done any research to determine the
optimal value. So feel free to throw this patch away.
