actions/cache throwing error even if the version is pinned to v4

[michelleperello]

Hi,

We had incidents last nigt of build failing because of the following error even though the version we used is already v4.
This morning it's no longer flagged as error but warning so builds are passing now but the warning still shows that our version will be deprecated even though we're already using the v4:

SonarSource/sonarqube-scan-action@v4.1.0 is using a deprecated version of the cache action

uses: actions/cache@v4.0.2

https://github.com/SonarSource/sonarqube-scan-action/blob/v4.1.0/action.yml#L35

You'll need to upgrade that action to the latest version

[michelleperello]

Tested it fixed with SonarSource/sonarqube-scan-action@v4.2.1.
Thanks a lot for your immediate reply @joshmgross 🚀
