Noticed there's already a type property being exported here (elasticsearch).
My reasoning for making type: 'cache' is that corresponds to type: 'plugin', as in https://github.com/koopjs/koop-tile-plugin/blob/master/index.js#L6-L10. Eventually all providers would export type of provider, all caches type of cache, all plugins type of plugin, so we could infer what to do with them more easily and display information from them through the API more automagically.
