Subject: [PATCH] Cache SwiftPM build products in CI

Every CI run recompiled the package's dependencies from scratch. Cache
`.build` alongside the SwiftPM download caches so a run whose dependency
graph and toolchain are unchanged reuses the compiled objects.

The key is exact-match with no restore-keys: objects built against a
different dependency graph or toolchain must never be reused, and a
partial restore is how a stale-artifact bug gets in. Matrix jobs put both
the OS and the Swift version in the key, so macOS objects can never land
on a Linux leg. Each compiling job gets its own key prefix. The lint and
swift-format jobs parse source without compiling it and are left alone.
