v1 cache API disappearing

[hdonnay]

If I read this actions/cache announcement correctly, this package is going to start failing intermittently at the end of the month. I was hoping to write a GOCACHEPROG tool for GitHub Actions, but the GHA cache API will be changing before the Go 1.24 release.

Do you know of any work on a V2 API client? Is there appetite for implementing it here?

Relevant: actions/toolkit#1931

FWIW I have made a replica cache v2 server implementation, that may not have a conforming azure blob service for larger uploads, however a possible test target without access to the official one.

While this is a protobuf + azure blob client protocol, this is using the json format (not binary) of protobuf, technically you don't necessary need the protobuf runtime.

Ah there is progress: #27
