Enable caching in qvm-ls and qvm-prefs

Both tools issue a large number of Admin API calls and greatly benefit
from a cache filled with a single per-vm Admin API call
(admin.vm.property.GetAll). In case of qvm-ls, this also saves multiple
admin.vm.CurrentState calls (power state is given in the admin.vm.List
response too).
