parse: apkindex: don't require python 3.12

Use hash() instead, it's simpler anyway.

Also add a test to ensure we're actually hitting the cache.

I guess we also need a new bug wrt testing python backwards compatibility in CI pre-merge. The current test, using vermin, didn't catch this.

My machine is using Pop!_OS 22.04, and the available version of Python in its PPA is 3.10. The walk_up parameter breaks pmbootstrap usage on earlier version of Python, such as this, since walk_up is only implemented in Python 3.12+.

My current hack is to manually add "walking up" process to mimick the walk_up parameter, but seems like this is much better and simpler.

Looking forward to see this getting merged!
