Removing the need of CachedFunctions in Typescript

[thelinuxlich]

I think it can be done if cache.define return the cache instance instead of void. If you are okay with it, I can prepare a PR.

Would returning a Function be enough? I think it would lead to a better API.

[thelinuxlich]

What do you mean? I was thinking of this:

let cache = cache.define(...).define(...)

cache.fetchSomething() // this won't error in TS because we will add a type to the return of define which always merges the current Cache with the new function definition 

[thelinuxlich]

Any thoughts on this?

[thelinuxlich]

bumping because it would be a simple change

[mcollina]

That would work.

I was thinking more of

let fecthSomething = cache.define(...)

fetchSomething()

[thelinuxlich]

So you mean cache.define returning the newly created function instead of the cache container?

[mcollina]

Both are fine, send a PR!
