CI build-speed optimisations #164

Replace cache even if cache hit (this resolves issues where the cache didn't include all vcpkg dependencies and some had to be built)
Perform vcpkg dependency building and caching as a separate job (cache is still saved if project build fails)

do packaging docs out-of-date check first

Second comment now resolved. First comment could be achieved by running the current job up to (and including) cmake "configure" - this will build vcpkg deps. Do not do build/test/package steps. Post Cache step will store vcpkg builds. Second job should pick up as it is currently. Note that for "good" code, this isn't really a speed optimisation - in fact probably a little slower. But it will be substantially faster when we're working with bad code and failing builds.
