Cache of k3s download for faster re-install (or --reset?)

[589290]

Setting up a 5 node cluster, developing, wiping out the cluster via uninstall and then re-installing is slow.

The thought was that with an added --cache option the k3s download would be stored in /tmp. It would remain if the uninstall command was also called with --cache. That way, during the next install with --cache it will check to see if the file already exists in /tmp by verifying the sha256sum against the previously downloaded file to verify integrity and re-install without re-downloading.

If there's a more eloquent way to reset a 5 node HA cluster back to the state right after it was installed, perhaps with a --reset option instead? I'd be even more interested in that approach!
