Compilation: fix cache hash of incremental builds
Without this commit, unrelated test builds using incremental cache mode (self-hosted, no lld) would end up using the same cache namespace, which is undesireable since concurrent builds will clobber each other's work. This happened because of passing the root module to addModuleToCacheHash. In the case of a test build, the root module actually does not connect to the rest of the import table. Instead, the main module needs to be passed, which has "root" in its import table. The other call to addModuleTableToCacheHash which is in addNonIncrementalStuffToCacheManifest already correctly passes the main module. In the future, I think this problem can be fully addressed by obtaining an advisory lock on the output binary file. However, even in that case, it is still valuable to make different compilations use different cache namespaces lest unrelated compilations suffer from pointless thrashing rather than being independently edited.
