player: use XDG_CACHE_HOME by default
This adds cache as a possible path for mpv to internally pick (~/.cache/mpv for non-darwin unix-like systems, the usual config directory for everyone else). For gpu shader cache and icc cache, controlling whether or not to write such files is done with the new --gpu-shader-cache and --icc-cache options respectively. Additionally, --cache-on-disk no longer requires explicitly setting the --cache-dir option. The old options, --cache-dir, --gpu-shader-cache-dir, and --icc-cache-dir simply set an override for the directory to save cache files. If unset, then the cache is saved in XDG_CACHE_HOME.
