[vcpkg] Allow to use Nuget's cache for Nuget binary caching sources (fix #15169) (#15512)

* Fix warning on clang version 10.0.0-4ubuntu1

The warning was

```shell
../src/vcpkg/commands.porthistory.cpp:55:14: error: unused function 'is_date' [-Werror,-Wunused-function]
```

* Add environment variable VCPKG_USE_NUGET_CACHE

As the name suggests, this environment variable allow tu use Nuget
cache for Nuget binary caching sources.

* Document NuGet's Cache environment variable

+#### NuGet's cache
+
+NuGet's cache is not used by default. To use it for every nuget-based source, set the [environment variable](config-environment.md) `VCPKG_USE_NUGET_CACHE` to `true` (case-insensitive) or `1`.

 ## Implementation Notes (internal details subject to change without notice)
 
 Binary caching relies on hashing everything that contributes to a particular package build. This includes:
