[asterisk-dev] Review Request: Sorcery Caching

[Joshua Colp]

Kia ora,

I've created a wiki page[1] which details the beginnings of a basic 
memory based caching wizard for sorcery. Right now while caching is 
possible using the existing memory wizard it's not possible to define 
object lifetimes, so once cached it's always pulled from the cache. This 
wiki page uses the memory wizard as a base but defines options which can 
tweak the behavior. Going forward this could serve as a basis for other 
wizards to be created for caching purposes.

Some things to consider:
1. How much control and flexibility should we allow?
2. Are there additional mechanisms that should be exposed to allow 
explicit object expiration?
3. Are the defaults sane?
4. Is there additional testing that should be done?
5. Does anything need additional explanation?

Cheers,
