Navid EMAD 862fc91f06 make: key the prebuilt-V8 cache on the zig-v8 tag
A zig-v8-fork release names its assets after the V8 version only, so the
same filename is reused across fork tags:

  v0.5.0  libc_v8_14.9.207.35_macos_aarch64.a  106944896 bytes
  v0.5.1  libc_v8_14.9.207.35_macos_aarch64.a  106945416 bytes
  v0.5.2  libc_v8_14.9.207.35_macos_aarch64.a  106945984 bytes

V8_CACHE was keyed on that filename alone, so a zig-v8 tag bump that
leaves V8_VERSION unchanged did not invalidate the cache: download-v8's
`test -f` guard saw the old archive and skipped the refresh. The build
then linked yesterday's bindings and failed on undefined symbols for
whatever the new tag added, e.g. after the v0.5.2 bump:

  error: undefined symbol: _v8__Value__IsFloat16Array
  error: undefined symbol: _v8__V8__SetFlagsFromString
  error: undefined symbol: _v8__Isolate__AddNearHeapLimitCallback

Putting the tag in the cache path gives each tag its own entry, so a bump
downloads and a repeat run still hits the cache. The URL keeps using the
bare asset name, which is what the release actually publishes.

Only affects local development; CI installs V8 through the install action
and never calls download-v8.
