Fix handling of updated files in extra_src_dirs
This change fixes cases where changes in .hrl files would not be picked up in .erl files that are in extra source directories (such as those defined with `extra_src_dirs` or modules in the test/ directory during a CT or Eunit run). The problem was due to the way the Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) of dependencies between files was being loaded and stored by the compiler modules. Prior to this fix, a single DAG would be used for all runs. On a regular run, the prior DAG is loaded from disk, re-checked, and if changed, it would get re-written to disk with the changes deciding what to re-compile. However, whenever extra source directories were specified, a second run would be done which swaps target directories around in the compiler modules. Bug 1: this second run was done without properly tracking the private .hrl files (in src/), so the changes were invisible. This has been fixed by re-adding the paths. The problem is that the DAG handling is self-contained; just invoking it was sufficient to get it loaded and rewritten to disk. But since runs with extra src dirs were done on different sets, the compilation of extra src dirs would be done with bad historical data (all the modules in src/ are dropped, all those in test/ are re-added); this DAG was then written to disk once again, polluting the next non-extra run. This is bug 2, and it is fixed by adding an optional label to each run so that a regular or extra compile round can be distinguished, each tracking their own files in their own DAG. A single test (and a lot of diffing) were sufficient for this.
