With this patch, /var/cache/apt/archives directory content is preserved.
The directory is actually a bind mount of the
~/.cache/image-create/apt/$DISTRO_NAME directory, much like what we do
for ccache.
You can use DIB_APT_LOCAL_CACHE=0 to disable this behavior.
This trivial change improve performance A LOT (>30%), even if a local
HTTP proxy because:
- there is no need to copy again and again the same files
- we avoid network latency
The patch has been tested with Debian and Ubuntu with every elements
from the tripleo-image-elements repository, the final size of the cache
directory is about 700MB per distribution subdirectory.

As with the previous similar changes, this is intended to catch
problems as they happen instead of ignoring them and continuing on
to potentially fail later. Setting this on all existing scripts
will allow us to enforce use via Jenkins.

Post install scripts are useful because they can perform tasks you want
to handle after the OS/application install but before the first boot
of the image. e.g: Clean the cache left by the package manager reducing
the size of the image.
