Description of what I changed

This is an initial step at caching the transformation from OpenMRS data -> FHIR data. The idea is that for certain queries we will essentially reproduce, e.g., the same data extract from the concept for each observation, etc., and that we can speed up these operations by simply caching the results of that transformation.

Cache invalidation is a very hard problem and this approach may not solve it successfully. The other alternative is to essentially have a cache-per-request, but I thought we'd start from a single cache
