I've had a rethink regarding the ability to bypass the cache entirely. Remote
files must be downloaded to somewhere before they may be used, so the cache is
always needed for remote files. The "volatile_cache" option already exists to
purge the cache when opkg exits and this may be used to keep long-term disk
usage low.
Local files will not be copied to the cache by default, however as described in
issue 139, a new option named "cache_local_files" will be added to specify that
local files should be copied to the cache.
Therefore a "nocache" option will not be added at this stage.
