Cache does not work with SNAPSHOT version #45

Change the RoboVM version in the root build.gradle file in robovm-samples to 1.3.1-SNAPSHOT. Every launch using the Gradle plugin of one of the samples will rebuild all classes and seems to ignore the cache. It doesn't happen with the Maven plugin and not when launching the compiler directly using AppCompiler. So my guess would be the unpacking of the dist.tar.gz which we had to change recently. If the unpacking doesn't preserve last modification times of the JAR files the cached files will appear as outdated and every class in robovm-rt/robovm-cocoatouch will need to be recompiled.

I can confirm that the tar.gz unpacking doesn't preserve timestamps. Since we unpack on every build when using a SNAPSHOT version of the dist.tar.gz each build will see new timestamps and the cache will be ignored.
