Uses `XDG_CACHE_HOME/cmake-js` instead of `~/.cmake-js`

I think that changing this shouldn't be done before 8.0.0, as this will likely break things for some users. |
That can avoided by moving ~/.cmake-js to XDG_CACHE_HOME if it exists |

I wish it were that simple. What if the new folder already exists? Should we try to merge it? |

Uses
XDG_CACHE_HOME/cmake-jsinstead of~/.cmake-js.I yet haven't added functionality to migrate the old cache to the new cache path since I am not sure if the maintainers would like to do that.
