removeCache(name), you should be able to get all cache names and loop through them.
However, there's no such method. We have getCacheNames() but that's only limited
to the cache names that have predefined either via XML, as <namedCache>, or
programmatically via defineConfiguration. Any other cache that might have been started and
whose name was not predefined would be a running a cache based on the default config.
However, there's no way to find out about all these caches.
