## Message

```
compilation: avoid pointless caching

When the entire purpose of this compilation is to perform a single zig
cc operation we could "tail call" clang by doing an execve, and any use
of the caching system would actually be problematic since the user is
presumably doing their own caching by using dep file flags.

Fixes #12317
