    Disable caching of HiddenServiceOptions
    
    Stem's controller has pretty straight forward caching for tor's configuration
    options. If you call 'GETCONF foo' then the value of foo is cached until you
    call either 'SETCONF foo' or 'RESETCONF foo'.
    
    In general this is all well and good, but HiddenServiceOptions behave in a
    different fashion. With those the caller might call 'SETCONF HiddenServiceDir'
    and expect 'GETCONF HiddenServiceOptions' to change. As such, opting out of
    caching hidden service options.
    
    This was a bug uncovered by wayzard on...
    
    http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18777837/tors-stem-module-python-loading-but-not-unloading-config
    https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/9792
    
    Prior to this fix...
    
    >>> from stem.control import Controller
    >>> controller = Controller.from_port()
    >>> controller.authenticate()
    >>> controller.get_conf_map('HiddenServiceOptions')
    {'HiddenServiceOptions': []}
    >>> controller.set_options([('HiddenServiceDir','/tmp/my_hidden_service'), ('HiddenServicePort', '1236 127.0.0.1:1236')])
    >>> controller.get_conf_map('HiddenServiceOptions')
    {'HiddenServiceOptions': []}
    
    Now it behaves as expected...
    
    >>> from stem.control import Controller
    >>> controller = Controller.from_port()
    >>> controller.authenticate()
    >>> controller.get_conf_map('HiddenServiceOptions')
    {'HiddenServiceOptions': []}
    >>> controller.set_options([('HiddenServiceDir','/tmp/my_hidden_service'), ('HiddenServicePort', '1236 127.0.0.1:1236')])
    >>> controller.get_conf_map('HiddenServiceOptions')
    {'HiddenServicePort': ['1236 127.0.0.1:1236'], 'HiddenServiceDir': ['/tmp/my_hidden_service']}
