build: avoid intermixed messages on the same line

In same cases, the progress messages from the compiler are intermixed
with the messages printed by ZiglingStep.

This intermixing appears in two cases:
  - when printing, e.g., the message "Checking 0_arrays2.zig..."
  - when printing the compiler errors

Closes #230
