Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Right now Salt only allows configuring a small subset of cherry_py options. I would like to be able to configure individual settings to suite my environment (notably changing the session cache to file-based).

Describe the solution you'd like

Add new parameters in "cherry_py" config
