[Github] Fix llvm project tests after default user changed in container

[boomanaiden154]

This patch adjusts the default user for llvm-project-tests when running on Linux. A recent change to the container made the default user non-root which prevents sccache from being installed as the command does not use sudo when trying to write to /usr/local/bin. For now, just run as root as we figure out a better solution to the problem.

Closing because this doesn't want to work...

I think I'll just open a PR to instal sccache in the container.
