Peeking at items will update stats, but will not alter the eviction order
of the item. Unlike get(), an item is fetched even if it is delete locked.
Args
key
The key in memcache to look up. See docs on Client for details of
format.
namespace
a string specifying an optional namespace to use in the
request.
Returns
An ItemWithTimestamps object which contains the value of the item along
with timestamp metadata - expiration timestamp, last access timestamp and
delete timestamp (if the item is delete locked).
