  1. arch-nspawn: read CacheDir option from host's conf 

    This went unnoticed on build.archlinux.org until we tried switching away
from its local /srv/ftp/ mirror. With a remote mirror, the chroots would
ignore all the cached packages under /srv/ftp/pool/{packages,community}.

With the local file:// mirror gone, arch-nspawn wouldn't mount the cache
directories from the host into the chroot. The fix is to read the option
from the host's pacman.conf, instead of the one given to arch-nspawn and
the one existing inside the working directory.

  5. Use x86_64 mirrors for x86_64_v3 

    pacman uses the first specified Architecture value in mirrorlist $arch
variable replacement [1], so extra-x86_64_v3-build does not work before
official x86_64_v3 repos are configured. The issue is workarounded by
using x86_64 mirrors for now.

See: archlinuxcn/repo#2201 (reply in thread)
