[yocto] [PATCH 0/4][Image Creator]Put extra requested fields into different cache files

[Liping Ke]

From: Liping Ke <liping.ke at intel.com>

Below four patches are for putting extra requested fields inito different
cache files instead of using only on bb_cache.dat. Now image creator need
extra three fields. And in the future, there might be more similar requests.
For each extra requestor, we will save the requested fields data into a
separate cache files so that those who don't need it will not be impacted
with larger fields and large data files.
