Subject: [PATCH] ci: cache fairmq compilation with ccache

FairMQ's own sources (library, examples, tests) were recompiled from scratch
in every matrix job on every push.

- add hendrikmuhs/ccache-action to build, sanitizers and static-analysis jobs
- set CMAKE_C/CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=ccache so cmake routes through it
- key the cache per (job, env, gcc) since ccache hashes the compiler
