This patch sets the sccache idle timeout to zero which ensures that it will run indefinitely. Without this, sccache will sometimes stop when several long test suites get run consequitively. This resets the statistics which we save at the end. Ensuring the process stays running means we have accurate statistics when we collect them at the end.
