What I did
OK This is a big refactor for the contract-type caching related code. Nothing is breaking but there is a lot more public stuff added. This makes thing way easier to use both for us and for users. We can no more easily improve the caching features, which is what I was trying to do for 0.9.
How I did it
Make a base model for writing and reading from Disk
Make some stuff to help the deployments JSON patrick added a while back.
Incorporate this stuff into the caches for chain.contracts, deleting lots of repetitious code along the way.
Move contract caching stuff to its own module for faster loading.
The list goes on!
How to verify it
looking for everything working pretty much as it did, except there are some new toolings and methods as well, which is now used all over our tests.
