Fix caching in Github Workflows #4056
Description
Caches are almost never hit in CI workflows for pip install step despite taking considerable time for retrieval and upload sometimes.
Possible problems:
- We are using old version of cache action
- caches are scoped to branches, so for unit tests they are always recreated for new PRs. For integration tests, they should still work fine as they are ran with
pull_request_target(?)

I think I saw a problem with with the caches, but before coming to a conclusion can please provide further info on how did you see if the caches are hit or not, according to what I see it looks like they should never be hit.

hey, there were some cases when it should have been used but wasn't, but you're right, mostly it was never even supposed to be used because of different branches involved. btw, I already opened a PR to sort of address this. I switched CI scripts to use uv to install dependencies instead of pip and looks like it's much faster even without catching.
