Restore access to a preview cache in clean mode
`--clean` is incredibly useful when testing contributions to `scope.sh`
among other things but some (most?) previews require the cache to
function.

As a compromise every invocation using `--clean` will create a temporary
cache directory.

Fixes #1783
