~/.cache is secretly excluded by default.  And my general answer for
these sorts of things is that apps should be putting their cache files
in ~/.cache as the XDG spec suggests.

This is a problem for all similar backup apps as well as any other app
that cares about what a cache file is.  So I'd rather not patch it just
in deja-dup.

I've added some popular folders that are unlikely to get fixed soon
(like the flash plugin's cache folder), but I don't want to play
whack-a-mole.
