As this PR is written, to enable the hook a user needs to manually call the
following:
`hooks.EnableHook("EnableSideInputCache", "1024")`
Which on the face of it, isn't so bad. However, it opens up that users can
make mistakes. They make a typo in the hook name, or don't convert the
parameter to a string. Eg. https://play.golang.org/p/AXHo63c9rq-
The point of an ancillary package for users to call instead, means they get
compile time safety, we've verified the hooks names match, and get to use a
sensible type (they pass an integer in, and don't worry how to make it a
string).
We can put these into a ".../pkg/beam/util/hooksx" package. Or maybe a
`harnessx` package.
So the user then just calls `harnessx.EnableSideInputCache(1024)` to get it
to work, not worrying about the details.
