 * Implements a cache of ACIndex objects for columns in Grist table.

 * caching for subsequent calls. Any change to the column or a value in it invalidates the cache.
 *
 * It is available as tableData.columnACIndexes.

 * It is currently used for auto-complete in the ReferenceEditor and ReferenceListEditor widgets.
