CI(check-build-tools-image): change build-tools image persistent tag (#…

…8059)

## Problem

We don't rebuild `build-tools` image for changes in a workflow that
builds this image itself
(`.github/workflows/build-build-tools-image.yml`) or in a workflow that
determines which tag to use
(`.github/workflows/check-build-tools-image.yml`)

## Summary of changes
- Use a hash of `Dockerfile.build-tools` and workflow files as a
persistent tag instead of using a commit sha.
