  1. Add ccache installation and setup instructions

    As a reaction to a question raised in the audience during userR! and the
    discussion on r-lib#103, an extra section in the README that explains
    (hopefully clearly) how to setup ccache for use with R and pak to speed
    up installation of packages that need compilation.
    
    Credits to @eddelbuettel for making me aware of this idea. Settings taken
    from his blog at

    Compared to the post I've reduced maximum cache size from 5G to 1G as
    installation of packages tidyverse, devtools and data.table generates
    less than 150M of cache files and extended the inline comments
    somewhat.
