Module extension isn't rerun when root MODULE.bazel's module is changed

[calebzulawski]

Description of the bug:

I have a module extension that reads the name and version of the root module. When the module values are changed, the module extension is not rerun. Adding return ctx.extension_metadata(reproducible = True) causes the extension to rerun.
