commit: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=3901cb515762aee9b6af67216419a9c5b83eec3d
branch: http://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master

Allow the BR2_CCACHE_DIR .config option to be overriden by the
BR2_CCACHE_DIR env variable.
This is useful for big projects where in some cases the developers home
directory might be a NFS mount (slow) and real production builds aren't.

Update documentation accordingly as well.
