When generating build jobs for explicit module dependencies, we must distinguish multiple versions of the same Clang module/pcm by encoding the arguments used to build it (e.g. target triple) into the pcm filename.
So far, we have been using an unstable hash, which means that these filenames were not stable across invocations and were being needlessly re-built in some scenarios (e.g. many-target builds).
Switching to a stable hash (SHA256) ensures that the same Clang module, built with the same command line, will produce the same .pcm filename. This will allow the client build system (e.g. SwiftPM) to deduplicate identical compilation jobs because their output filenames will now also match.
