Description

Related to https://github.com/jmshrv/finamp/issues/520 and https://github.com/jmshrv/finamp/issues/796

Proposal to add a simple least-recently used cache with configurable cache size as a temporary measure to improve on-device caching mecanisms. Would improve low data availability situations for some users.
