In #22217 it was observed that the order modules are compiled in affects the contents of an interface file. This was because a module dependended on another module indirectly, via a re-export but the interface file for this module was never loaded because the symbol was never used in the file. If we decide that we depend on a module then we jolly well ought to record this fact in the interface file! Otherwise it could lead to very subtle recompilation bugs if the dependency is not tracked and the module is updated. Therefore the best thing to do is just to make sure the file is loaded by calling the `loadSysInterface` function. This first checks the caches (like we did before) but then actually goes to find the interface on disk if it wasn't loaded. Fixes #22217
