Title: KERN-2871 add option to bypass cache for localhost

From a thread on the dev list:
http://collab.sakaiproject.org/pipermail/oae-dev/2012-May/002124.html

Developers don't want caching enabled, because it interferes with being able to readily see the effects of their changes.

The downside of "enabled by default" is that developers have to jump through an additional hoop to prevent unwanted caching effects. The downside of "disabled by default" is that deployers have to jump through an additional hoop or they will get no caching.

Nico suggested that by default, caching should be disabled for localhost and enabled for everything else.
