GH-50283: [CI][Ruby] Switch caching to apache/infrastructure-actions/stash

[pitrou]

Rationale for this change

apache/infrastructure-actions/stash benefits from much greater size limits than actions/cache, so our compilation cache stands a greater chance of not being evicted by the next time a build runs.

Are these changes tested?

By the affected CI jobs.

Are there any user-facing changes?

No.

I don't understand why I keep getting permission denied errors when storing the cache on the Ubuntu job:
https://github.com/apache/arrow/actions/runs/28457975587/job/84337896893?pr=50284#step:7:79

Uploading artifact: ruby-ubuntu-22.04-50284_merge.zip
Beginning upload of artifact content to blob storage
Error: An error has occurred while creating the zip file for upload
Error: EACCES: permission denied, open '/home/runner/work/arrow/arrow/.docker/ubuntu-ccache/0/0/stats'
file:///home/runner/work/_actions/actions/upload-artifact/043fb46d1a93c77aae656e7c1c64a875d1fc6a0a/dist/upload/index.js:124113
    throw new Error('An error has occurred during zip creation for the artifact');
    ^

This is the only job where it happens and it doesn't seem fundamentally different from other Docker-based jobs already using the stash action. @rok @raulcd @kou Do you have a clue perhaps?

Hmm, it seems that not all ccache files are created with the same umask for some reason...

Note that on Windows builds (both MinGW and MSVC), most files are not cached because the build system passes compiler options that ccache does not support.

On MinGW:

Cacheable calls:               1332 / 3188 (41.78%)
  Hits:                        1096 / 1332 (82.28%)
