IOException when app uses 3rd party SDK

See original GitHub issue

✍️ Describe the bug

This issue arises from #394

After fixes for #394 the reporter provided update that another exception appeared:

 java.io.IOException: No such file or directory
        at java.io.UnixFileSystem.createFileExclusively0(Native Method)
        at java.io.UnixFileSystem.createFileExclusively(UnixFileSystem.java:281)
        at java.io.File.createNewFile(File.java:1008)
        at com.chuckerteam.chucker.internal.support.AndroidCacheFileFactory.create(AndroidCacheFileFactory.kt:21)
        at com.chuckerteam.chucker.internal.support.AndroidCacheFileFactory.create(AndroidCacheFileFactory.kt:15)

        at com.chuckerteam.chucker.api.ChuckerInterceptor.intercept(ChuckerInterceptor.kt:92)

It happens even after removing the application from device and reinstalling a new one.

🔧 Expected behavior

Chucker works normally and shows transactions.

📱 Tech info

Thanks, guys. Now it seems to be working without requests failing.

Special thanks to @koral-- for providing cases and scenarios to reproduce the problem

I’m not sure if that is not an overengineering.

IMHO the sufficient fix for this issue is to not save context.getCacheDir() result in a property but invoke it each time just before attempt to create the file. This should solve the vast majority of issues related to this ticket (getCacheDir() tries to create a directory if it does not exist).

Additionally we can add nullcheck and probably throw some IOException with appropriate message.

If I understand correctly IOException here is now handled gracefully and does not cause request to be dropped.
