Packages requiring SUDO are installed in user cache path

[anandhu-eng]

Currently, the install, cuda script installs the packages with SUDO permission to user path, which requires SUDO permission to remove when doing cm rm cache. Also, upon installation to user path, the other users in the system might not be able to access the packages.

This was the error while cache removal:

@anandhu-eng that's correct. I think the best solution will be to install such packages under /opt directory (not sure if we have any such installations for windows) and then add a cache_dependency path in the respective script.
