Better staticcheck cache

arp242 · arp242 · commit 87ee06c60034 · 2026-03-18T12:55:32.000Z
Cache doesn't seem to work at all now? Since every build seems to take
~10 mins, even repeated ones on the same PR.

Since the cache is quite large (~1.5G), store it just on the master
branch, and then restore it from there for every PR. That should be
"good enough".
