[PATCH 3/5] Exclude bind-mounted cache dirs from root cache

Including the ccache directory /tmp/ccache and the yum cache directory
/var/cache/yum in the root cache is unnecessary and can lead to the
root cache tarball being an order of magnitude larger and taking 10
minutes or more to tar and compress even on a fast PC.
