Description
So far
ADDinstructions were not cacheable, onlyCOPYinstructions. This is not really a blocker as most operations can and should be done with COPY instead, but nevertheless it's confusing.With this change we implement caching analogous to COPY instructions. No special precautions for tar unpacking etc has to be taken as they only affect the initial build, not the rebuild from cache.
