zig cc: do not enable the cache for link operations
This commit makes `zig cc` match the equivalent behavior of `zig build-exe` with regards to caching. That is - it will cache individual .c to .o compilations (with the usual exceptions), but will always repeat the linking process so that incremental linking has a chance to happen. Perhaps a future enhancement will provide a way to get the old behavior, but I suspect this new behavior will be preferred by everyone, because it is closer to what C compilers do. Note that the old behavior can be obtained by switching to `zig build-exe` instead of `zig cc` and using the `--enable-cache` parameter. Closes #12317
