cache: OS-specific cache directories

Windows, and to a lesser extent OS X, don't conform to XDG and have
their own preferred locations for caches.

On Windows, use %LOCALAPPDATA%/restic (i.e., ~/AppData/Local/restic). I
can't find authoritative documentation from Microsoft recommending
specifically which of %APPDATA%, %LOCALAPPDATA%, and %TEMP% should be
used for caches, but %LOCALAPPDATA% is where browsers store their
caches, so it seems like a good fit.

On OS X, use ~/Library/Caches/restic, which is recommended by the Apple
documentation. They do suggest using the application "bundle identifier"
as the base folder name, but restic doesn't have one, so I just used
"restic".
