[JENKINS-71027] Files are not copied to agents, scripts are not executed

The changes that were made in one of the last updates (https://github.com/jenkinsci/slave-setup-plugin/pull/11) have broken our setup:

We have a job that cleans all out agents and then restarts them. Before the updates that started caching if data has been copied and scripts executed, this would reinitialize our agents. Now, because the plugin assumes the agent is already setup, no data is copied and no initialization is done.

I understand that in some cases this caching is nice to have, but for our use-case, we would like to have the old behavior back. Maybe it is possible to configure whether or not to use caching?
