Feature #4486: server-side (puppetmaster) catalogue caching

I'd like to see some sort of catalogue caching in puppetmaster, so it can 
handle more requests.

The use case is deploying a config change across many machines in parallel. At 
the moment, it is not possible to deploy to a large number of machines 
simultaneously - puppetmaster can't take the load. I'd like to be able to do 
this:

1. disable puppetmaster (ie. prevent clients from getting updated catalogues)
2. make configuration changes (update modules, manifests, etc.)
3. Pre-generate catalogs for all clients and cache them so they are not 
re-generated next time the client connects
4. Trigger a puppet run on all clients. They will connect and get the cached 
catalogue, which should be a fairly lightweight process compared to compiling 
the whole catalogue 

Thoughts?
