Moved to Agent. The setting is used on the agent side to cache a catalog.

Re: Add "none" parameter to catalog_cache_terminus configuration reference

This is no longer necessary because the agent doesn't update its cached catalog when running in noop mode, see PUP-10160. I'm going to close this ticket.

Josh Cooper PUP-10160 addresses --noop catalog getting unintentionally applied, but doesn't address the need to prevent Sensitive data from being written to disk. It is a bit of an edge case concern, but having the ability to toggle it off can save many hours of meetings and arguments with some auditors.

Re-opening this one as we just had another use case for skipping cache updates come in: Puppet agents that normally run with use_cached_catalog = true set in `puppet.conf`, but where Operators use Bolt tasks to roll out targeted updates by combining -no-use_cached_catalog with options like -tags that filter which parts of an upgrade catalog are enforced.

The problem is that -no-use_cached_catalog updates the cache, and the next regular scheduled daemon run enforces any remaining changes that were not filtered by -tags.

Issue:
There is currently no "none' parameter to pass the catalog_cache_terminus reference. If you want your --noop run not to trigger changes from a cache catalog as in (PUP-3077) you currently have to pass an invalid string:

puppet agent -t --noop --catalog_cache_terminus= `` ''

Request:
It would be nice to have the a "none" option similar to how you can specify "none" to disable data bindings in hiera (https://docs.puppetlabs.com/hiera/3.0/puppet.html#to-disable)
