This PR adds a file caching filter. The filter receives (fname, stream) pairs; if necessary, it will download all the data in the stream to a local file based on the filename. Then it will pass an (fname, stream) pair to the next state.
This is particularly useful with WebDataset, where FileCache can be used to cache shards incrementally as they are downloaded from remote locations, but the filter works with arbitrary (fname, stream) pairs.
