Decide whether to use network cache settings (default: auto).
If enabled, use the maximum of ``--cache-secs`` and ``--demuxer-max-bytes``

implicitly disabled.

+ Before mpv 0.30.0, this used to accept a number, which specified the size

``--no-cache``
Turn off input stream caching. See ``--cache``.
