Description

Adds support for mold linker (using the -m flag).
Adds support for ccache by default (looks for ccache path and adds it as an argument to the deps and slicer build).

Screenshots/Recordings/Graphs

no ui changes

Does not modify builds. Mold is technically slightly faster, by may only save seconds as it is a linker. The use of ccache allows for much faster "recompilations" where ninja may want to recompile the project (due to makefile changes or etc.) but the actual project files have not changed much.
