I think it's the same
--with-cache-dir
parameter which says where to generate the cache and then read it in
runtime.

I didn't change it in fontconfig recipe, because the default is already
matching with FONTCONFIG_CACHE_DIR, do you want me to pass
--with-cache-dir parameter? I agree that it could be less surprising for
people who want to change it, but on the other hand if upstream moves
default cache location in some newer fontconfig version, then the person
updating the recipe should check FONTCONFIG_CACHE_DIR value as well.
