Local cache of PCHs

[wodin]

One issue which may arise here is that the user running jank for the
first time will need perms to write to where jank is installed. If this
becomes an issue, we can add support for saving this someplace local,
like ~/.jank as well.

It might be a good idea to use the XDG Base Directory Specification to avoid creating a new top level hidden directory in the user's home directory:

$XDG_CACHE_HOME defines the base directory relative to which user-specific non-essential data files should be stored. If $XDG_CACHE_HOME is either not set or empty, a default equal to $HOME/.cache should be used.

Yep, great call out. That's a much better approach. :)
