This PR introduces a caching system for the syntax check. It's a big optimization for repeat builds (think watchify). I had proposed this first in browserify/syntax-error#9, but substack suggested that it was better implemented here.
I went with a per instance cache instead of a global cache (though it could very safely be one) because I don't want to set the precedent that it's ok for Browserify to be stateful.
