/// This is the type of a file cache. To request an item from the cache, pass a
/// unique string as the Key. For hits, the cached file will be added to the
/// link and this function will return AddStreamFn(). For misses, the cache will
/// return a stream callback which must be called at most once to produce
/// content for the stream. The file stream produced by the stream callback will
/// add the file to the link after the stream is written to. ModuleName is the
/// unique module identifier for the bitcode module the cache is being checked
/// for.
///
/// Clients generally look like this:
///
/// if (AddStreamFn AddStream = Cache(Task, Key, ModuleName))
///   ProduceContent(AddStream);

/// Buffer callbacks must be thread safe.

/// Create a local file system cache which uses the given cache name, temporary
/// file prefix, cache directory and file callback.  This function does not
/// immediately create the cache directory if it does not yet exist; this is
/// done lazily the first time a file is added.  The cache name appears in error
/// messages for errors during caching. The temporary file prefix is used in the
/// temporary file naming scheme used when writing files atomically.
