The issue at hand is a wrong assumption done by the cache loader that if
the changes to the source files are minimal, a single recompile of the
changed files is enough. This has proven to be not true, instead, a full
recompilation needs to happen as the QML meta tree might have changed in
ways that could cause weird application behaviour, or outright crashes.
The solution is:
1. Invalidate the full cache if any of the source files has been changed, and
recompile in full.
2. If an application crashes during startup, wipe its cache to increase
stability.
