Only unset HOME when running cmake as root

This hack is required to work around pytorch/test-infra#5091, which
runs some CI jobs as root, which buck2 doesn't like.

But we saw in #3502 that this can break things for some normal users.

Reduce the blast radius of this hack, only modifying HOME when actually
running as root.
