This resolves #395 in disabling the v8cache in the ncc self-build.

The underlying issue seems to be that there was a report of a possible v8 cache bug on a specific architecture, so that is enough of an indication of instability for us to rather forgo this minor performance benefit.

It turns out the performance drop is actually quite significant as can be seen from the fact that CI is now timing out :(

Can we extend the CI timeout beyond 10 mins?

We could extend CI beyond 10 minutes but I'm concerned about performance here. The reason for the timeout is to fail if we regress and its too slow. So I think its best to try this on Windows first like your other PR and come back to this one.
