cache: Use configuration's hash value to validate cache

Previously we use the file time stamp to judge if a cache is valid.
Here this commit introduce a new method, which calculates the total
hash value for a certain configuration's key/value paris, and tag
it into cache filename, for example, bb_cache.dat.xxxyyyzzz.

This mechanism also ensures the cache's correctness if user
dynamically setting variables from some frontend GUI, like HOB.
