-1 as it takes an ext. list as a parameter.

I propose a solution where for each table a serialized array is stored in 
typo3temp/TCA_<hash>/tablename.data. This copy is created at the same time 
typo3conf/temp_CACHED_<hash>_ext_tables.php is written. A new method of 
TSFE may load this files and generate them if necessary.

If we want to use the same stuff in the BE to save memory there we could 
make it typo3temp/TCA_<TYPO3_MODE>_<hash>/.

With this concept we could also get rid of the crippled compressed TCA of 
FE which has its problems (localization does not work during a BE session).
