Cache sidebar with a simple caching API
We cache the sidebar once for every user, the downside is that once
the user meets new access criteria, their sidebar does not get
updated. This can be fixed by calling soc.cache.sidebar.flush() when
appropriate.

This module includes some utility functions for inspecting the layout
of a GDAL data source -- the functionality is analogous to the output
produced by the `ogrinfo` utility.
