Isolate the default cache directory
Instead of having it in several random places, have a central function that contains all the cache directory selection logic. As per QtCore docs GenericCacheLocation can be empty so introduce a fallback to CacheLocation (the app-specific, non-shared location) in case some future platform does not support the former.

+\section1 Other Plugin-specific Information

+\section2 Tile cache
+
+The tiles are cached in a \c{QtLocation/osm} directory in \l {QStandardPaths::writableLocation()}{QStandardPaths::writableLocation}
+(\l{QStandardPaths::GenericCacheLocation}). On systems that have no concept of a shared cache, the application-specific
+\l{QStandardPaths::CacheLocation} is used instead.
