Add apt config file to switch caching mechanism from MMap to array-based.
This needed to provide possibility to build fresh Isar suites on old hosts.
For example, building Isar stretch on jessie host fails with the following
error:

  Hit:1 http://security.debian.org stretch/updates InRelease
  Ign:2 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian stretch InRelease
  Hit:3 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian stretch-updates InRelease
  Hit:4 http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian stretch Release
  E: Dynamic MMap ran out of room. Please increase the size of APT::Cache-Start. Current value: 25165824. (man 5 apt.conf)
  qemu: uncaught target signal 11 (Segmentation fault) - core dumped
  Segmentation fault

Now Isar performs the following:
1. Checking if user attempts to build stretch on old kernels
2. Temporarly installing this apt config file.
3. Removing this file after image rootfs creation

So this file will not go to target rootfs.
