Merge #341

341: Enable caching for Github Actions r=korken89 a=AfoHT

Using [GHA caching](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/configuring-and-managing-workflows/caching-dependencies-to-speed-up-workflows) to store key parts of the testing environment.

One example is downloading `arm-none-eabi-gcc` (which takes roughly 1 minute) for each checkexamples.

The rustup setup is roughly 200MB and restores nicely.

Rust examples can be found [here](https://github.com/actions/cache/blob/master/examples.md#rust---cargo)

**Something to discuss:**

Several notable projects remove some problematic files in order to keep cache size reasonable
