Description:

Currently sccache in Arch Linux is built with support for being a distributed client, but the server & scheduler itself is not built nor installed.

It would be nice to have the server as well. A systemd unit for it would be a nice bonus, but isn't required.

Additional info:
* package version(s) 0.3.3-1
* config and/or log files etc: N/A
* link to upstream bug report, if any: N/A

Steps to reproduce:
1. pacman -S sccache
2. Try to set up sccache cluster, notice the sccache-dist binary is missing.
This task depends upon

There is an example systemd unit in https://github.com/mozilla/sccache/blob/main/docs/DistributedQuickstart.md#making-a-build-server-start-at-boot-time that could be adapted to Arch.

Added the feature. I didn't add any systemd service though, the one suggested runs as root and I would rather ship one with DynamicUser. However I don't really have the time do troubleshoot any issue that might bring up at the moment, and I barely use sccache as a client, let alone host a server.
