Due to upstream apt commit [1], it calls `id -gn root' in cmake
to set ROOT_GROUP if not define. The output of `id -gn root' may
differ in the compared builds which caused reproducibility issue

|build-st/reproducibleA/tmp/work/x86-64-v3-oe-linux/apt/3.0.3/
temp/log.do_configure:124:-- Found root group: root
...

Explicitly set ROOT_GROUP = "root" for cmake other than call `id -gn root'
to support reproducibility
