any objections?

This not required in my opinion. One can install sccache/ccache and choose to use it without meson. Or, meson does not need sccache/ccache for general use cases.

that's why I added them to optdepends. I accidentally found that meson supports sccache without any extra options to be passed

fair enough I guess. It's just one of many things meson can use, but a very useful and easy to miss one. I've never used sccache though, only ccache.
