Don't cache sandbox failures

Benjamin Schubertrequested to merge
bschubert/dont-cache-errors-from-host-tools into master

Description

When building a project in BuildStream and there is a problem with the sandbox (for example, bwrap wasn't installed before running), the error will get cached and subsequent runs (after installing bwrap) will fail in the same way.

This behavior is counter intuitive and has already bitten multiple developers.

Changes proposed in this merge request:

  • Don't cache sandbox failures

This merge request, when approved, will close: #727 (closed)
