Add DeferredCache.get_immediate method (#8568)

* Add `DeferredCache.get_immediate` method

A bunch of things that are currently calling `DeferredCache.get` are only
really interested in the result if it's completed. We can optimise and simplify
this case.

* Remove unused 'default' parameter to DeferredCache.get()

* another get_immediate instance
