Max Howell 6ded0d0cbb Use /Library/Caches/Homebrew
We don't penalise existing users; if ~/Library/Caches/Homebrew already exists and is writable, we select that.

This is the correct choice, the cache should be the same directory whichever user is used and whatever instance of brew is invoked.

The Cache directory is set to 0777 this allows any user to write to it and fixes Homebrew/homebrew#10857.
