📄 Description

Use new --tmpfs functionality to implement --private-cache. This has the added advantage that Firejail can now deal with symlinked ~/.cache directories, at least as long as the symlink's target lives in user home.

The new --private-cache is less verbose and now behaves like --blacklist, --read-only and so on, which is why the test had to be adapted.
