[Core] AccessTokenCache API

[jeremymeng]

Currently we have a tokenCycler that's internal to core-rest-pipeline and is used in bearerTokenAuthenticationPolicy. ACR also needs the token cache functionality for its refresh token so it adds a slightly different copy of tokenCycler.

It would be nice to have some API to support the caching and auto-refreshing of tokens.

• API design
• where would this live

some question:

• should we allow explicit cache invalidation?

This would be awesome!
