These changes update the storage to accept arbitrary key/value parameters when creating transactions. The container is passed to trigger callbacks that are invoked when transactions commit. The use case for this is avoiding parse and compile operations on modules loaded out of bundles. The parse and compile step on large bundles can take several seconds. Since the triggers are executed while the store's read-lock is held, policies queries block. Signed-off-by: Torin Sandall <torinsandall@gmail.com>
These changes update the manager and bundle plugin to avoid parsing and compiling modules during the manager's trigger callback. Since policy queries are blocked while triggers execute, it's adavantageous to cache the compiler that is obtained during bundle activation and reduce the work done in the trigger callback. Also, as part of these changes, the bundle plugin incorporates remaining modules when it recompiles. This ensures that remaining modules are correct.

These changes resolve #1515 by caching the compiler created during bundle activation and passing it through to the manager's trigger callback. See the commit messages for a bit more info.
