Michael Pratt 84fbdf01ff cmd/go: use cache for PGO preprocessing
This is the final CL in the series adding PGO preprocessing support to
cmd/go. Now that the tool is hooked up, we integrate with the build
cache to cache the result.

This is fairly straightforward. One difference is that the compile and
link do caching through updateBuildID. However, preprocessed PGO files
don't have a build ID, so it doesn't make much sense to hack our way
through that function when it is simple to just add to the cache
ourselves.

As as aside, we could add a build ID to the preproccessed file format,
though it is not clear if it is worthwhile. The one place a build ID
could be used is in buildActionID, which currently compute the file hash
of the preprocessed profile. With a build ID it could simply read the
build ID. This would save one complete read of the file per build
(cmd/go caches the hash), but each compile process also reads the entire
file, so this is a small change overall.

Fixes #58102.

The build time overhead to building with Profile Guided Optimization has been reduced significantly. Previously, large builds could see 100%+ build time increase from enabling PGO. In Go 1.23, overhead should be in the single digit percentages.
