bpo-40448: ensurepip: Do not use cache (GH-19812) ensurepip optionally installs or upgrades 'pip' and 'setuptools' using the version of those modules bundled with Python. The internal PIP installation routine by default temporarily uses its cache, if it exists. This is undesirable as Python builds and installations may be independent of the user running the build, whilst PIP cache location is dependent on the user's environment and outside of the build environment. At the same time, there's no value in using the cache while installing bundled modules. This change disables PIP caching when used in ensurepip.

:mod:`ensurepip` now disables the use of `pip` cache when installing the
bundled versions of `pip` and `setuptools`. Patch by Krzysztof Konopko.
