1. fix(compiler-cli): prevent prior compilations from being retained in … …

   …watch builds
   
   In watch builds, the compiler attempts to reuse as much information from
   a prior compilation as possible. To accomplish this, it keeps a
   reference to the most recently succeeded `TraitCompiler`, which contains
   all analysis data for the program. However, `TraitCompiler` has an
   internal reference to an `IncrementalBuild`, which is itself built on
   top of its prior state. Consequently, all prior compilations continued
   to be referenced, preventing garbage collection from cleaning up these
   instances.
   
   This commit changes the `AnalyzedIncrementalState` to no longer retain
   a `TraitCompiler` instance, but only the analysis data it contains. This
   breaks the retainer path to the prior incremental state, allowing it to
   be garbage collected.
