Add ability to invalidate single plan without flushing entire package cache

I would like the ability to invalidate/flush access plans and performance data for a specific statement from the package cache. It seems like the EXECUTABLE_ID would allow us to uniquely identify an access plan for this purpose.

Flushing the entire package cache to accomplish this is a scorched earth policy, and has too dramatic of an impact on performance to be a reasonable workaround.

Additionally, when comparing to MS SQL Server, and training DBAS from that background, they are surprised this functionality does not exist.
