Add in a key-word-arg cache key generator that may be optionally used. This generator will generate a key that mirrors closely to the original key generator. The key difference is that it will flatten all arguments down to just the values ordered alphabetically based on the argument name. This order will be used to ensure that regardless of the order that the keys are passed (positional, key-word, or out-of-order key-word) the cache key ends up being the same.
This was not made the default keygenerator to avoid reverse incompatibilities with developers that are relying on stable cache-key generation (e.g. storing data via the memcache-like interface to a non-volitile backend).
