ci: Prevent ~/.stack/pantry cache from being empty

When building with an LTS version that has exactly the dependencies we
need (xmonad-0.15), stack doesn't need to download the Hackage index. If
GitHub Actions cache locking chooses this job as the one that writes the
cache, then the "stack-pantry-Linux" cache entry stays empty, possibly
forever.

Force Hackage index update to prevent this from happening.
