Andreas Florath b107606a75 Remove ccache
This patch removes the ccache handling from the base element.  For
mostly all systems this was never used at all.

This is working towards the removal of the base element from DIB

This is the base element.
Almost all users will want to include this in their disk image build,
as it includes a lot of useful functionality.
The `DIB_CLOUD_INIT_ETC_HOSTS` environment variable can be used to
customize cloud-init's management of `/etc/hosts`:
* If the variable is set to something, write that value as
cloud-init's manage_etc_hosts.
* If the variable is set to an empty string, don't create
manage_etc_hosts setting (cloud-init will use its default value).
* If the variable is not set, use "localhost" for now. Later, not
setting the variable will mean using cloud-init's default. (To
preserve diskimage-builder's current default behavior in the
future, set the variable to "localhost" explicitly.)
Notes:
* If you are getting warnings during the build about your locale
being missing, consider installing/generating the relevant locale.
This may be as simple as having language-pack-XX installed in the
pre-install stage
