There was some inconsistent behaviour in the caching layer around how
exceptions were handled - particularly synchronously-thrown ones.
This seems to be most easily handled by pushing the creation of
ObservableDeferreds down from CacheDescriptor to the Cache.
This is a prerequisite for cross-signing, as it allows us to create other things
that live within the device namespace, so they can be used for signatures.

`None` is not a valid event id, so queuing up a database fetch for it seems
like a silly thing to do.
I considered making `get_event` return `None` if `event_id is None`, but then
its interaction with `allow_none` seemed uninituitive, and strong typing ftw.

* Refactor Keyring._start_key_lookups
There's an awful lot of deferreds and dictionaries flying around here. The
whole thing can be made much simpler and achieve the same effect.
