cache local freetype source #8230

Description

@anntzer

A large number of CI builds are currently failing (after a looooong timeout) due to a failure to download freetype. I would suggest caching the freetype source e.g. in ~/.cache/matplotlib, so that it's picked up by the CI caches. That would also be a benefit for local testing.

(Right now it takes ~40s for me to wget the freetype sources, which is not negligible especially if you multiply it by 6 builds.)
