# Hooks into ApplicationController's write_fragment method.
# write_fragment is used for action and fragment caching.
# Create an alias method chain to call our customer method
# which stores the associated key with the tag in a 
# Redis Set. Then we can expire all those keys from anywhere
# in the code using Rails.cache.delete
#
# I use alias_method_chain instead of calling 'super'
# because there is a very rare case where someone 
# may have redfined 'write_fragment' in their own 
# controllers. Using an alias method chain
# keeps those methods intact.
