def get_and_update_setting(self, name, default=None):
'''Look for a setting in the environment (first priority) and then
the settings file (second). If something is found, the settings
file is updated. The order of operations works as follows:
1. The .sregistry settings file is used as a cache for the variable
2. the environment variable always takes priority to cache, and if
found, will update the cache.
3. If the variable is not found and the cache is set, we are good
5. If the variable is not found and the cache isn't set, return
default (default is None)
So the user of the function can assume a return of None equates to
not set anywhere, and take the appropriate action.
