New Cleaner: Pacman

This is a cleaner I quickly made for cleaning Pacman's cache and log file. Pacman is the package manager for Arch Linux and Arch-based distros. It is installed by default, since it is a crucial part of the system. This cleaner should be hidden unless /usr/bin/pacman exists. I tested this out on my own Arch Linux system. Deleting the log file will hide package installation and removal history. Cleaning the cache can free up hundreds and even thousands of MB. It is not recommended to clean the cache if you wish to downgrade or reinstall packages. This must be run with root privileges (just like APT requires root.)

The cleaner uses absolute paths right now:
/var/cache/pacman/pkg/
/var/log/pacman.log

The problem is that users can specify their own paths by editing /etc/pacman.conf

Would it be possible to use variables instead?
