Overlay port not cached

See original GitHub issue

I’m forced to use a custom overlay port of Lua 5.1 (vcpkg only supports 5.3 and I have a large ecosystem based on 5.1), and it looks like the action does not cache it. Here’s how I use the action:

- name: Install dependencies with vcpkg
  uses: lukka/run-vcpkg@v1
  with:
    vcpkgArguments: '@${{env.vcpkgResponseFile}}'
    vcpkgDirectory: '${{github.workspace}}/3rdparty/vcpkg'

Here’s how the output looks like:
