Quirk releng.disable_devmode_ignore_cache

Added in version 2.4.

Packages may be configured with LIBFOO_DEVMODE_IGNORE_CACHE to always attempt a new fetch of sources for a development-configured revision. However, if a remote is not available during a rebuild event, the process will fail since the package cannot be re-fetched from the configured site. To help a builder hint that using the cache is fine for an invoke, this quirk can be provided to avoid any re-fetch attempt. For example, using the command line::

releng-tool --quirk releng.disable_devmode_ignore_cache

Or adding in the project configuration:

quirks = [
    ...
    'releng.disable_devmode_ignore_cache',
]
