This patch causes us to use pruneCache() to prune the ThinLTO cache after
completing LTO. A new flag --thinlto-cache-policy allows users to configure
the policy.

Depends on D31020

Not interested in adding a CachePolicy on the config and having this at the end of the LTO process?

I thought about doing something like that, but I couldn't see a clean way to do it, as the LTO implementation is supposed to be independent of the type of cache being used.
