      Description

      We have a precedent for allowing intensive operations to be skipped when being called from the api - ie. currently geocoding and street parsing can be skipped and filled by offline jobs. There is a PR open to allow skipping the mystical and magical fixAddress function https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11372/files and the processGreeting code is in a similar vein ie 1) expensive to run and 2) there is a job which can do it 'out of hours' if decided.

      Adding another 'magic param' to the v3 api is not great but OTOH there is sufficient precedent IMHO
