Fix for diffrent hashes between diffrent build paths

when the build paths are diffrent for rust sources, the objects files genarted are having diffrent hash values for each build.

- Updated the hashing mechanism to ensure consistent hash values across different build paths.
- Addressed issues with reproducibility by normalizing directory paths before hashing, preventing discrepancies caused by varying build environments.
